There's a toned down version of this idea, where only attributes and types implementing the `(Attr|Type)DialectAliasInterface` are allowed to alias.

However, that version requires the attribute or type to internally hold which dialect to use during printing (ie. not all objects can be aliased, for example `StringAttr`  wouldn't accept aliases)  and parsing requires overriding the default parsers.
The main benefit of the toned down version is it produces less overhead during parsing and printing. Nonetheless, it's cumbersome to implement.
