It's a good point. Replying to your other point, we need some traits to
tell whether something is a built-in float. For those that look like a
float, we should define isFloatingPointLike.

then the trigonometric functions in std.math must too. Personally, I
think we should keep the constraint for now. If we loosen it later, at
least nothing will break.

Good point, I'll add that.

I've considered that. But wouldn't it make more sense to define
isFloatingPoint and isIntegral so they match compile-time interfaces
instead of specific (built-in) types?

See bug 2460, "ref functions can't be template functions". If this is a
low-priority bug, I can always work around it, but that seems rather
pointless. Also, considering that almost all operator overloading is
now done with templates, it *really* should be fixed.

Thanks! :)
