Try using T.stringof instead of typeid(T).

typeid does a runtime lookup. T.stringof does magic to
get a string representation of the thing at compile time.


Since, in the template, T here is a type, you get a string
of that type.

.stringof is a bit of magic that can work in a lot of places.
last time I checked though, it is pretty poorly documented,
so might take some guess and check to make it work for you.
