OK, I had started doing it this way and reverted to header only. I'm
happy to resubmit with the more intrusive versions. 

What is the best renaming solution? 
struct foo {
	int class;
};
does class become m_class? I think its best to sort out the prefix
before I start resolving it into the code.

main keywords coming to mind: new, private, template, class.
new+template mainly used in param names
private+class used in a few structs (more intrusive patch)
