True. What I mean is that a function type should know whether it needs 
a 'this' pointer or not, and implicit conversion between a function 
type that needs a this pointer and one that doesn't need one should be 
forbidden. And calling such a function directly would either not work, 
or would require a 'this' to be provided as the first argument (which 
is then put at the right place according to the ABI rules).
