@erichkeane Do you have any better idea how to represent this? I could represent as something like
```
def __make_integer_seq : BuiltinTemplate<Template<[Class<"T">, NTTP<"T", "Ints", /*variadic*/true>], "IntSeq">, Class<"T">, NTTP<"T", "N">>;
```
But that's really hard to read IMO.

@Sirraide With an attribute we'd still have to verify that the parsed template actually represents the template, since users would be able to declare templates with an attribute, so we'd be back at square one AFAICT. It would also mean introducing code into every single translation unit, which would probably increase the startup time of clang.
