If std.v2 ever materializes, we'll have an opportunity to fix
papercuts like this. Until then, my preferred workaround is to
use a renaming import:
import std.traits: hasNontrivialCopy =
hasElaborateCopyConstructor;
Couldn't we just rename hasElaborateCopyConstructor to
hasNontrivialCopy and leave a deprecated alias from the former
to the latter? (Or perhaps without the deprecation, but the
documentation would use the new name and hopefully new code
would, too.)

My impression was that a pure name change would be unlikely to
pass review (see for example
https://github.com/dlang/phobos/pull/6227). But perhaps it's
worth submitting the PR anyway just to see what happens.
