It would be helpful if it were possible to alias partially specified templates.
An example:

void foo(A, B)() {}

alias foo!int fooInt;

Currently this fails with "Error: template instance foo!(int) foo!(int) does
not match template declaration foo(A, B)()".

However, if you write foo as:

template foo(A)
{
    void foo(B)() {}
}

Then it works.

This would be useful because it would allow you to write things like:

alias equalRoR = equal!equal;

instead of having to write:

alias equalRoR = binaryFun!((a, b) => equal!equal(a, b));
