Sorry, I don't understand what I have done wrong this time :)

So, to put it clear : do you approve merging 
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/2687 in

etc). Assuming that old std.typetuple will be kept deprecated and 
(eventually) hidden from docs without removal for a very long 
time of course.
