2334. Creation of objects by typeid

Section: 6.7.2  [intro.object]     Status: open     Submitter: Chris Hallock     Date: 2017-01-30

The list of ways that an object may be created in 6.7.2 [intro.object] paragraph 1 does not include creation of type_info objects by typeid expressions, but 7.6.1.8 [expr.typeid] does not appear to require that such objects exist before they are referenced. Should the list in 6.7.2 [intro.object] be extended to include this case?
