Is there currently any way to get something like

Tuple!(int,"i") t = tuple(5);

to work?

Tuples are compile-time constructions. They are immutable. And btw the types do not coincide

Also they are used like:
alias Tuple!(int,5) FOOBAR;
FOOBAR [0] a_uint = FOOBAR[1]; //declares a_uint as an uint with value 5;

Doh. It looks like

Tuple!(int,"i") t = tuple!(int,"i")(5);

should work, but I'm getting the following error

/home/ellery/download/dmd2035/dmd2/linux/bin/../../src/phobos/std/typecons.d(514):
Error: template std.typecons.tuple(T...) declaration T is already defined

any ideas?

Ah that std.typecons tuple, not the variadic template tuple; I assume you are trying to initialize the tuple like
> Tuple!(int,"i") t = tuple!(5);
if it is not, what are you trying to do?
