What about accesses? Seems like this would require at least some context in the parser. And what about the human parser? Do you get confused between arrays, array accesses, templates? Or do you get used to it?

    T int = 5
    myarray[T]

'T' is a completely normal identifier, it is merely the conventional one used as a type parameter. But you can also use Type, MyType, etc instead of T as that parameter identifier.

The compiler can easily detect if the thing in the [] is a int or type.
