Yes, that looks as if it would do the job, but what are its

None really, except perhaps automatic forwarding of operators which is
easy enough to do on a struct too (and with a struct, you can do only
the ones that actually make sense for you).
Typedef has a few major disadvantages too - surprising behavior if you
forget the second parameter, for example. The library typedef should
really be removed.
Thank you. I was hoping that struct was a good approach, I've just
never seen anyone recommending it, so I wanted to check.
