Given:

struct Outer {
     struct Inner {
         int n1;
     }
     int n2;
}

Outer.sizeof should be equal to 2 * int.sizeof, because there's 
no point in introducing any overhead here. Whereas structs inside 
functions do their magic by having an implicit pointer, which 
increases their size. I don't think we want to introduce any 
memory overhead with something as insignificant as properties.
