In plain English what I am trying to do:

I'm testing that the property can be set.
I.e.
class Foo
{
@property public Foo Subfoo() {}

@property public Foo Subfoo2() {}
@property public void Subfoo2(Foo f) {}
}

in the above class Subfoo can't be set, Subfoo2 can.
I'm testing it with
Foo f,
__traits(compile, f.Suboo = Foo.init)
__traits(compile, f.Suboo2 = Foo.init)


because the field name are going to be a parameter there is a bit of convolution and mixin and template.
anyway...

Apparently I just recieved a response "it's not a bug" (it's a feature) because
-------
TemplateInstantances are always performed in the scope of where the TemplateDeclaration is declared, with the addition of the template parameters being declared as aliases for their deduced types.
-------

I don't even understand how the answer relate to my problem, nor how to solve it! Can any one explain to (in plain understandable English) why is it a feature, and, most importantly, how to work around it!?!?
