C++20 Modules Support?

[Ariaszzzhc]

At present, the C++ standard has advanced to C++23, and compilers such as gcc, clang, and msvs have already provided support for C++ standard modules, although the support may not be complete. May I ask if there are plans to support C++ modules in this project?

Maybe it will look like:

import microsoft.gsl;

int main() {
  gsl::owner<int> value{new int{1}};
  /* ... code ... */
  delete a;
  
  return 0;
}

I think it is cool feature

But does it serve the majority of users? We don't use it my current position but we did in a previous place and we were moving slowly to 2017 on a project by project basis (this was 2022). No there are probably ways to get both imports and includes working together but does it ease or increase the burden on the maintainers? GR

Maintainers call: Not at this time. We want this GSL implementation to work portably on all major compilers, so we're waiting for all the three major compilers have non-experimental support for modules.
