I think it is probably better to allow tools like rust-bindgen tackle this 
problem.  It may be cool if there is an elegant way to build in to the 
language, but I think it will require additional metadata to convert the 
pointers in to safe pointers.  Opaque structs (like in your example) should 
generally be wrapped as classes and simply changing a prefix wouldn’t be able 
to solve that.
