discrimination of constructors with same number of parameters

typedef is deprecated (because its semantics is not flexible enough and because it doesn't play well with object oriented language features), but I have a real need for something like it. Andrei has discussed about a Phobos-based typedef replacement (based on structs + alias this), but nothing concrete has come out yet. I hope to see something to solve problems like spir ones.
