Could happen.  But the few times I have done something like that, there 
is a task type, and objects of that type.  I guess it would have been 
possible to declare the task type in the body also, but making the task 
type visible, even when not strictly necessary, seems more natural.

Doesn't matter.  The ability is there if needed, and in Ada 95 the 
potential gotcha from Ada 83 is gone.
