I've had to use fullyQualifiedName in some string mixins.
Unless there is more to the example than what meets the eye, "had
to" isn't quite true, and even with the `import moduleName!…`
hack, your code is still unnecessarily restrictive. Just use ` ~
"fromJSON!(typeof(t." ~ name ~ "))…"` instead.
I'd really like to know where the notion that stringifying
symbols for mixin code generation is a viable choice comes from.
People seem to try with an irritating regularity, only to
inevitably discover that it doesn't actually work some time
later. That one can get dangerously close now that we have
`moduleName` doesn't exactly help either.
