Ah, I see, that's nice. You use the received string to feed another template and generate what you need. Good idea.
Why did you make OfType opDispatch a static function?

 
I've also been thinking of a way to build a compile time LINQ like program. If the comparison and boolean operators are overloadable, you could build prepared SQL queries from expressions at compile time.

using(myDatabase.tables.baz.bar)   foreach(Row!(int) row; select!("baz.foo").whare(for.a != someInt && baz.c == bar.c))
    do(row.foo);

If you have a limited number of methods like .whare, why use opDispach? (Sorry if my question is naive).
