Another possibility would be to make a further distinction between 'local methods'

type headers, and forbid compound methods.
Yes, that's pretty much the approach I've been taking. Particularly
since these little helper functions are smoothing over a given type
being defined in different ways in different environments (the types
themselves are different, but the types of the functions operating on
them are the same).
