I was experimenting with one of the open methods matrix
examples [1] and trying to replace the virtual methods with
templates. My example [3] does it statically and with structs
so that it could be used with mir. However, the moment you try
to make it a little bit more complicated and allow the type of
the underlying matrix data to be templated, then it hits up
against this issue and you can't rely on aliases any more.
I would support a DIP.

Sorry, the stupid thing keeps telling me it's down for
maintenance.
