For dynamic arrays and associative arrays, something like this would work:

template ArrayElementType(T : T[])
{
  alias T ArrayElementType;
}

template AATypes(T)
{
  // todo: static assert if T is no AA type here

  alias ArrayElementType!(typeof(T.keys)) key;
  alias ArrayElementType!(typeof(T.values)) value;
}

Thinking about it, it's probably simpler to just use

typeof(array[0])
typeof(aa.keys[0]), typeof(aa.values[0]).
