Such things are included in coding styles fairly frequently, but
identifier prefixes are largely unnecessary in C++.  See recent (make
that perennial) discussions in comp.lang.c++.moderated.

Besides, if you want to use member prefixes, you already have one that
is guaranteed to work for members and not for non-members:  It's called
`this->'.
