Subject: SDL Typedef Structs

Hi, Thanks for the SDL libraries, I have been using them for about a year
now and they are really brilliant. One thing that I have just found whilst
using them through C++ (and needing forward declarations) is that when you
typedef structs you sometimes use

typedef struct Name
{
...
}Name;

e.g. SDL_Surface


and other times use

typedef struct
{
...
}Name;


e.g. SDL_Rect

The first type works fine, when I define a header file I can just put
'struct Name;' at the top and use the Name throughout. However, the second
type is harder to use in a header, and I haven't found a way yet, other than
to include 'SDL.h' in the header file (undesirable). Would there be any harm
in changing the definition of SDL_Rect and such like to the second form?
