Now I am concerned, this looks like an oxymoron:

TypeTuple!(1, 2, 3)

Should we think about changing the name of std.typetuple.TypeTuple since it can clearly contain expressions as well as types? I would actually argue that TypeTuple should be called Tuple, and Tuple be called ValueTuple or something, but I understand we probably cannot do that at this point...

Such has been discussed before. std.typecons.Tuple should also have a
reasonably terse name, a virtue I feel ValueTuple does not fulfill.

The problem is that those things contained in a std.typetuple.TypeTuple
are so diverse, and thus hard to put in category. FreeTuple? TupleList?
AnyTuple? AllTuple?

Anyways, I'm off to sleep. Good... Well, I guess it's day to most of you
on the other side of the pond. Good day, then. :p
