I think would really concern me if it took up 32 bytes of space...  unless
you meant to say 32 bits (4 bytes).    8^)

But I'd have to agree that the memory 'wasted' on storing flags in an
integer is trivial these days.  And I would bet that there would be a
performance hit from the need to (internally) mask a bit to determine a
boolean value.
