The example you posted does work btw. What won't work, is if you put these 
includes into namespaces or classes, which I've also seen projects do (Eigen 
e.g.).

a.h
namespace a {
#include "a_impl.h"
}

a_impl.h
int foo;

b.cpp
#include "a.h"
auto foo = a::foo;

But, as Sven said, this is a wontfix. It will probably be resolved as a side-
effect once we use Clang instead of our own parser though.
