  Somehow what seems like would work good is a card-file system. 
Assuming the order of functions/declarations don't matter and you 
let the editor deal with where it places things (say, 
alphabetically or by attributes like private, pure, etc), then 
having a partial 3d view where you can flip through various 
function definitions & header documentation, then open only the 
function(s) of interest in question, hiding anything unrelated. 
If there's anything global or variables it accesses those could 
be listed too along with their type, and perhaps where the type's 
definition comes from for reference; and any functions it calls 
along with others with the same overloading name.

  Hmmm really wish I could do more Art/3d stuff...
