It's also a style I tried to get in to back when I did C++.  It was 
often more efficient there with user-defined types, but that argument 
doesn't hold here.  Still, it's the one style I've tried to stick to. 
And since this code is brand new, I figured it didn't really matter much 
if I went through and made a gratuitous change.
