Yeah, maybe. The value of ordering in the headers and doxygen is
probably less than in a manual. We can revisit later if we like. It
shouldn't be too hard in an API header (as opposed to an
implementation header with inlines) to group first the typedefs and
then the function declarations. But I have no real concern about the
ordering here, it was just a thought.
