Er, Quentin Bryce is our technical head of state and was appointed in 2008.
I can only assume you are referring to having a female prime minister who is our in practice head of state (not the actual head of state).
Both are good on both accounts, but will this mean anything different from the norm in practice? It's rhetorical, no need to answer.
