To answer the OP's question, I don't think there's anything technical
restricting the compiler from doing this. I believe it's been proposed
several times. If you want to, you can work around the issue by making
a wrapper constructor function:
Foo!T makeFoo(T)(T t)
{
return new Foo!T(t);
}
I should add, it would be ambiguous to do something like this:
class Foo(T, U)
{
this(T t, U u) {}
this(U u, T t) {}
}
This kind of situation currently doesn't exist in IFTI, since only
templates that have exactly one member and it is a function can
participate in IFTI.
But if the classes are made to work in normal cases, then I think IFTI can
be extended to support this kind of thing
