Topic: 17.4.3.1.2 - Global names [lib.global.names]

Under 17.4.3.1.2 the ISO/IEC 14882 says that "Each name that contains a
double underscore ("__") or begins with an underscore followed by an
uppercase letter is reserved to the implementation for any use."
Does this also apply to tripple underscores? If so ISO/IEC 14882 17.4.3.1.2
should state something along the lines that any sequence of 2 or more
underscores is reserved.

Every name containing a triple underscore a fortiori contains
a double underscore (in fact, at least two occurrences exist,
though they are not disjoint). So yes, this applies to triple
underscores.

It already does; that's implied directly by the existing text.

When you manage to show how you can have more than two underscores in
succession without also having two consecutive I will agree with you.
