Wow. Didn't know that.
Is this really part of the D grammar?
Sometimes D is soo cool.

Still - too cool for me to see this. I don't like templates 
looking similar and even taking the same types but the compiler 
does something too intelligent to avoid an ambiguity.

And it's not visible from the API or documentation - you need to 
look into the source to disambiguate - I'm not convinced and 
still consider this bad style.
