Yes, your reasons for the aliases make sense.

I wanted to provide a seamless way to serve and call functions remotely.
For the client it should provide an interface as close to a normal
function call as possible. The server shouldn't have to do anything but
provide the required set of functions (or function objects).

I'd have to boost my TCP/IP library first :)

Well, I'm sure that if your library becomes part of boost we'll see the
"tagged type" technique used more frequently.
