Also, slight bikeshedding issue: I'm not so sure on using names like int4 for vectors. You see things like int32 a lot to mean a 32-bit integer, or int8 to mean an 8-bit integer. Using this notation for vectors may be confusing.
Consider also that the int8 is an alias, not a keyword. This means that the compiler will inform you of any ambiguities, as well as allow:
core.simd.int8 to disambiguate.
