That's my favourite replacement. The underscore suffix in name could be
easily linked with quite popular use of it in naming private class members:

struct T
{
private:
   int value_;
   int foo_() { ... }
}

Doesn't really work for me. If something is useful (assuming for a
library client), put it to public namespace. Second would be too much,
convention became too complex, so vague. I think.
