It seems to me that this may be an important target to seek:

auto foo(auto ref T bar) {}

Should be callable in the same manner

auto foo()(auto ref T bar) {}

is callable. That is to say it would be unfortunate if turning it 
into a template would cause different behaviors.

If nothing else, deviations should be well documented and 
explained.
