Fully agreed. The only inconsistency I can think of is the declaration 
of pointer to function returning a pointer to function. This is 
effectively a bit hard to read since it needs to read forth and back to 
evaluate the expression. A typedef will simplify the reading when 
frequently used as in state machines.
