17.8.2.2 <a href="https://wg21.link/support.srcloc.cons">[support.srcloc.cons]</a>/2 in <a href="https://wg21.link/N5001">N5001</a> says nothing
75+
about using <code class='backtick'>source_location::current()</code> in an initializer of a template
76+
parameter. The example below suggests that gcc, clang and msvc seem to agree
77+
on this case. It would be nice if the Standard legitimized current practice.
78+
</p>
79+
<pre><code>
80+
#include &lt;source_location&gt;
81+
82+
template &lt;int i = std::source_location::current().line()&gt; // line 3
83+
struct A {
84+
static constexpr int value = i;
85+
};
86+
87+
template &lt;int i = std::source_location::current().line()&gt; // line 8
88+
constexpr int f() {
89+
return i;
90+
}
91+
92+
static_assert(A&lt;&gt;::value == 3); // passes
93+
static_assert(f() == 8); // passes
94+
</code></pre>
95+
96+
<p><i>[2025-02-07; Jonathan provides wording]</i></p>
97+
98+
<p>
99+
For a default argument of a function parameter, <code class='backtick'>current()</code> is recommended
100+
to return the location of the caller that makes use of that default argument.
101+
For a default template argument, the location would be determined by the
102+
template's point of instantiation (13.8.4.1 <a href="https://wg21.link/temp.point">[temp.point]</a>) which would
103+
not always do what users expect. Using the location of the default template
104+
argument in the template declaration seems sensible and predictable,
105+
and matches existing practice. Arguably, this doesn't need to be stated
106+
because it's just "exactly where the <code class='backtick'>current()</code> call appear in the source".
107+
The other cases in the Remarks paragraph are situations where the preferred
108+
location is different, because we want to know where it's used, not defined.
109+
</p>

Modify 17.8.2.2 <a href="https://wg21.link/support.srcloc.cons">[support.srcloc.cons]</a> as indicated:
120+
<blockquote>
121+
-2- <i>Remarks</i>:
122+
Any call to <code class='backtick'>current</code> that appears as a default member initializer
123+
(11.4 <a href="https://wg21.link/class.mem">[class.mem]</a>), or as a subexpression thereof,
124+
should correspond to the location of the constructor definition
125+
or aggregate initialization that uses the default member initializer.
126+
Any call to <code class='backtick'>current</code> that appears as a default argument
127+
(9.3.4.7 <a href="https://wg21.link/dcl.fct.default">[dcl.fct.default]</a>), or as a subexpression thereof,
128+
should correspond to the location of the invocation of the function that
129+
uses the default argument (7.6.1.3 <a href="https://wg21.link/expr.call">[expr.call]</a>).
130+
Any call to <code class='backtick'>current</code> that appears as a default template argument
131+
(13.2 <a href="https://wg21.link/temp.param">[temp.param]</a>), or as a subexpression thereof,
132+
should correspond to the location where the default template argument
133+
is specified.
