Formatting self-defined type C pointers with indent and typedef usually.

Hi indent developers team, packagers, community...

Why *indent* put a /space/ between self-defined (like /SDL_Renderer/ 
***) *pointers* and not between normal /*types*/ pointers like char ***, 
int ***.

And second *indent* make the same misstake (/or error at your 
convienence/) with some /*types*/ defined in <stdint.h>, like uint8_t, 
int8_t.
I enjoy to abuse of simple <stdint.h> *defined* */types/* because:

an unsigned integer on an octet is explicit defined as:

uint8_t var ; // An unsigned integer is an number without sign.

instead of

unsigned char var ; // a character is a character.

And:

unsigned short var ; // is not short to write.

Instead of

uint16_t var ; // is clearer to understand that's an unsigned integer on 
2 bytes (if an octet is 8).

*???*

Else I would not hesitated before formatting my code, with *indent*, in 
/fear/ of `/coding-standart errors`/.
