If you want to instantiate a template and you have a value of the actual type, 
then there is often a way to solve the problem.
You can write a small function that performs the trick. For example you have 
the templated class (or struct in D2) Foo!(T), then you can define a small 
foo() like:

Foo!(T) foo(T)(T x) {
    return new Foo!(T)(x);
}

Now you can instantiate Foo with:
auto fint = foo(10);
auto fdouble = foo(10.0);
No stinking bangs (!) to be seen :-)
But I don't think this can be used in your situation.
