But not now. Modern IDEs remove the "I had to do a lot of typing" issue

Maybe they save the typing, but they don't help with
reading over that bulk lateron :-)

So the length of the line is moot. But the readability is sure
improved. Rather than chasing down where the typedef was defined

Well, as you mentioned "Modern IDE"s: right-click -> view-definition
(or simply with vim: "<Ctrl>-]" and <Ctrl-T> to jump back, afterwards)

And it could be buried in any
of the many included header files.

Fortunately not in Java :-)
