ah, how i HAET that! importing std.traits in module scope just to have
preconditions in templates drives me mad. i want to be able to insert
import statements before that `if`! and i want that imports to not
affect template body too.

sure, i can do hacks with lambdas here, but i want the code to be
easily readable -- that's why we have that cool `if` conditions there!
