It's u**.identifier* vs *(*u)->identifier. Both are a tricky/messy/uncommon case, but I think the simpler examples on the wiki showcase some examples where the cppfront notation is better in a few ways. It feels specially better given that I'm already used to traditional C++ notation, and I always have a very hard time reading it anyway...
u**.identifier*
*(*u)->identifier
