Change Details

To restrict what classes are allowed to be used with the template (so assumptions in code can be made about the interface all template variants will share) I propose to extend the synctax of templates from ``` class MyTemplate<Class T> ``` to ``` class MyTemplate<BaseType T> ``` which would be the equivalent to c#'s `class MyTemplate<T> where T : BaseType` It should not introduce any new syntax parsing-wise and does not break existing use where people just have set the default to `Class` for now.

So maybe this is a bug? ``` class TemplateRestriction { } class TemplateTest<TemplateRestriction T> { } ``` Returns `Bad type 'TemplateRestriction'`
