Hello,

The member/method pointer dereference operators ('.*' and '->*') are listed as having level 4 priority. This means that in the expression:

   a.*b()

(which you'll necessarily write in order to dereference b as a pointer to method) the function call operator is evaluated first, so the expression is the same as:

   a.*(b())

This seems strange, as it guarantees that almost any use of pointers to methods would require extra parenthesis like so:

   (a.*b)()

To me, it seems that those operators should have been at priority level 2 than these parenthesis would have become unnecessary with no adverse effect (at least as far as I could find).

Is there some reason I've missed for defining them at priority level 4?

Thank you,
