Since C++11 we can replace old `typdef`s with `using` that has few advantages over the `typedef`. However it is not currently possible to document this with QDoc as \typedef command does not recognize it as valid typedef (even though from documentation point of view it basically is) and no other command I am aware of can be used for it. Either \typedef command should be expanded so it handles new style typedefs written with `using` or new command \using could be introduced.
