In that case it would be nice to avoid most of the class name 
duplication, that's one of the things I really disliked about C++.

class C
{
     void foo1();

     void bar1()
     {
         // N1 -- two indents
     }

}

// This avoids all but one duplication of the parent class name.

class.C.inner
{

    void foo()
    {
      // 1 indent
    }

    void foo2()
    {
       // 1 indent
    }

}
