AFAIK, there are no plans to change this in the next version of the C++ standard.
Actually, this is one of the main reasons for the proposed typeof keyword, which many compilers already support, and which boost will most-likely have a macro for in 1.34 which is capable of working with some compilers that don't even directly support typeof (it may possibly be in the 1.33 release on august 1st, but I don't believe it was accepted yet).
