it seems like its been a while

As a bandaid, just vomit some sort of ugly details at me in a 
trait

```d
import std;
void foo(T...)(T args,bool magic=true){
	args.writeln;
         magic.writeln;
}
unittest{
	foo(1,2,3);
	foo(1,2,magic:false);
}
```

I know of no way to make even this simple code work

so, `__traits(namesofvarargs,T)==["","","magic"]`; give me one 
piece of data and I can figure it out and make some better apis 
until full named tuples come.

     alias Seq(S...) = S;
     foo!(Seq!(int, int))(1, 2, magic:false);

T doesn't know anything about `magic`, it's just a type sequence. 
Also, `args` is not a variadic parameter.
