I second placeholder as the most rational keyword. Every description of the 
distinct usage of type alias refers to is a placeholder type. placeholder is 
one word(circumventingCase_issues) and is more descriptive of what it is than 
associated*. Seems like an easy win. Is there a some reason I am missing why 
*type* or associated* are better keyword fits?
