Have you considered adding an option where you can tag an include file (in a preceding comment) so that it is not considered for removal in a specific CPP file. I had a issue where an include file was removed because the CPP file compiled but the code did not run correctly.

How about something like this.

#include "tokenizer.h" // $include-toolbox-ignore$ or ... #include "tokenizer.h" // $include-toolbox-preserve$

That way if you had more options then you just keep adding them to the end of the line.
