In my opinion, the syntax for is() is not all that bad. However:

- It lacks is ( Type : TypeSpecialization , TemplateParameterList ) and
     is ( Type == TypeSpecialization , TemplateParameterList )
- It does not deduce base templates. Given is ( T == U!V, U, V... ), it
     fails. Given is ( T == MyTemplate!U, U... ), it works.
