So, we don't have any changes in the C library. So, a nice transition
would be a waste of time.

Last time we checked (which was at least a year ago), we did not have
library using the HDF5 C++ binding. Maybe that changed since then but if
it didn't (or just for a couple of library), I would not bother.

Anyway, we might want to create a dedicated library for the C++ binding.

Cheers,
Sylvestre

PS: your new file symbol is excellent! Congrat!
