I thought the resounding answer from this group was that specifying  
the intent stuff *was* useful...?  Did I mis-read that?

I honestly don't care how the (void*)-like behavior is denoted; that's  
the advice that I'm asking from this group.

If you're saying that we shouldn't list the intent, then there's  
little reason to change the way the bindings are shown at all -- the  
15-year old notation is fine, I guess.
