Function typedefs have any use?

I don't think is a big enough issue for me to warrant that much effort 
:-) Certainly there is a lot of function pointer usage in many 
applications, and I think it would be beneficial to be able to define 
both the pointers and the functions themselves using the same typedef, 
but I don't think it's worth introducing potential code parsing problems.
