Hi Stephen, could you please elaborate, which bad usage hiding could be there?

Well, good point, though the benefit of using stucture here
could be easier way for extension if needed. The compiled result
is the same as for plain array or structure, so I would rather
stick with struct here, until contrary proved (I mean it's not
a problem to update the patch and use array here but I still
think struct it better in long term). If you guys think that I
should move it to array -- no problem, i may update ;)
