AFAICT you're asking for the commented-out line in

   auto Tmpl() = l;

   void main(string[] argv) {
      auto l = argv.length;
      mixin Tmpl!() a;
      assert(a.Tmpl==l);
      //assert(a==l);
   }

to work. That would probably be enough, make sense and have
no serious backward compat issues.
