And, if it is by design, what is the reason for that?
That's by design. It allows you to override names from a
template mixin like inheritance but no runtime cost.
Read my tip of the week here to see how it works and how you
can combine ctors from a mixin:

Ah, I was on vacation at that time so that's why I don't remember
reading it. :)
Thanks! It's a nice workaround but it's, well, a workaround. It
leaks the internals of the template mixin and a potential API
user would have to remember two additional quirks when using it.
I guess I'll try a different approach, initializing the mixed in
members later with a function.
