I don't understand why we can't use a template like:
auto fun_time(SysTime)(SysTime tm)

    static assert (is(SysTime == std.datetime.SysTime));
    return tm;
}

void main()
{
  import std.stdio;
  import std.datetime;

  fun_time(Clock.currTime()).writeln;
}

It's an interesting idea, but it will have problems with overloading, as the 
template selection will match on everything.
