People will want to pass a variable for op. Would that work?
It'll currently fail miserably - it has to be a constant. Otherwise, we
have runtime code generation. While not impossible, it is a large
increase in scope.
Then probably the operation should be simd!opcode(arguments). If a function is
intrinsic it shouldn't have special syntactic rights.
You're right, I'm just not too thrilled about generating hundreds of template
instantiations.
