Agreed. I was wrongly assuming this is a non-issue since VS never
opened the forward headers, but obviously it likes the copied ones.
Apologies for the inconvenience.

Sure :)

Obviously your snippets are missing the code for doxygen and other
details. The modularization part is, as you know, on our roadmap
anyways.

Which systems would you test? VS & Linux? That keeps the XCode part for me.
