Nice idea, I wonder if the compiler couldn't do this automatically with

This would help solve the problem that error messages aren't going to
get better when you pass it into something that only accepts the aliased
type. However, for the most part, these are non-template functions anyway.
That was discussed and rejected some years ago. IIRC, Walter just didn't
like it.
I'd certainly be in favor of it though. But in lieu of that...
