I put up a PR for phobos awhile ago for concepts as a library to kind

For those who are on a sugar-rush from Concepts, maybe this is a fun
trick?
It almost works, if only IFTI was smart enough to deal with eponymous
identity templates.
========================================
int fun(T)(T t) if(is(typeof(T.Put)))
{
}
========================================
template Putty(T)
{
static assert(is(typeof(T.Put)));
alias Putty = T;
}
void fun(T)(Putty!T t)
{
}
========================================
Templates are not bijective, so we'll never be generally able to
determine T by matching Putty, i.e. 2 different T could have the same
Putty!T type.
Adding an exception for identity templates seems to be a hack.
It does not need to be just for identity templates. It can work for all
templates not involving non-trivial introspection on the template arguments.
