nridge added a comment.

There is precedent for highlighting declarations and uses differently in other C++ editors. For example, Eclipse CDT has separate highlightings for function and functions declarations (see screenshot below).

Objectively speaking, I think it makes sense to style function declarations differently from function uses for emphasis. For example, you can use the same color for both, but make the declarations bold. I have found this to aid readability.
