I finally get it! :)
Yes, there are limitations for template value parameters. The spec at
http://digitalmars.com/d/2.0/template.html#TemplateValueParameter
says:
<quote>
Template value parameter types can be any type which can be statically
initialized at compile time, and the value argument can be any
expression which can be evaluated at compile time. This includes
integers, floating point types, and strings.
