Finally, I don't like the fact that the term 'function type' is used to refer to pointers and references. This is bound to cause confusion. Also, it means that you have to write 'plain' all over the place. In my library, I used the term 'signature type,' which I wasn't too happy with, but at least it was clear that I wasn't referring to any pre-existing category of types.
