If you squint at it the right way, TypeRep looks like such a type *. I believe 
José Pedro Magalhães is working on a revision to the definition of TypeRep 
incorporating kind polymorphism, etc., but the current TypeRep might work for 
you.

Your idea intersects various others I've been thinking about/working on. What's 
the context/application?

Thanks,
Richard
