I wonder we have no method of giving a template a different name. 
Typedef provides a new concept to a type, for example.
	typedef int size_t;
In the same manner I'd like to give a alias to a template. I know it
is possible using #define.
	#define MyContainer Vector
We need a method independent of the preprocessor for the purpose.
