Your comment resonates with me.  Would TemplateArguments, 
TemplateArgs, or TemplateArgList make things any better in your 
opinion?

FYI, I didn't expect the AliasTuple PR to be merged so quickly.  
If that's as good as it gets, so be it, but I'd like to bring 
this discussion to a amicable end, and I don't mind submitting a 
couple more alternate PRs if will help those who have to make the 
final judgment call and bring this issue to a close.
