[Qt-creator] code style politic question

Hi everyone,

is anyone currently already working on implementing such a feature?
otherwise i might start on it this weekend, and expect it to be polished a
few days after that; i don't have that much spare time on my hands
unfortunately...

i would be implementing the following (in that order):
- the placement of & en *
- const placement
- ... (open to suggestions)

for each of these options i will try to introduce something in the options
window, probably in a seperate tab or so.

after having them i'd like to look at seeing where else these options apply
(if someone could provide me with some hints that would be nice). then i
could fix those hardcoded rules too to use the (by then) introduced options.

regards,
luc
