Yeah, maybe some day (and actually this DIP as written would be a 
practical tuple literal, though the more recent drafts we're 
throwing around are not anymore), but right now there isn't.

An AliasSeq comes close, but forces CTFE. A std.typecons.tuple 
comes close, but forces object member storage. A function 
parameter list might be closest but that's its own level of werid.

But yeah, a non-string tuple literal is perhaps something to 
explore separately too.
