Another problem is that we now have to have an argument if we want to pass a template parameter, which is a serious limitation.

I'd say, it's not different from selection from an overload set.

When I see such a signature as `void myTemplateFunction( InputRange!int r ) {` I'm automatically assuming I can do things like `void function(InputRange!int) foo = &myTemplateFunction;`, but in our case I can't since it's a template.

One of possible applications of this feature would be specification of constraints for variable types to improve readability:

range!int r = ...

So it should work like a normal type.
