So is everyone on board for this? If not, please say something. Otherwise I'll make the changes.

This is probably the way to go, though I really wish the bug that prevents overloading functions against templates would get fixed so it wouldn't mean that the floating point case would have to be templated, too.

What's wrong w/ adding sqrt(long) and sqrt(ulong) overloads that just

Doesn't work -- it's ambiguous for ints.
You need an explicit specialisation for every type: byte, ubyte,
short, ushort, int, uint, long, ulong.
Yuck.

Or templates that dispatch using constraints.
