Hey, thanks for the q{} trick. I knew I had seen it somewhere... 
but couldn't find it.

That trick only really helps when there is minimal concatenation 
going on though. When you have to splice a bunch of stuff 
together, a TokenString doesn't provide much relief.

Docs for template mixins explicitly support the behaviour that 
I'm after, so I'm gonna file a bug.

" TemplateMixin takes an arbitrary set of declarations from the 
body of a TemplateDeclaration and inserts them into the current 
context."
