    Resolution: Won't Do

After a fair bit of thought, I don't think there's much we can do here. The 
names are the names at this point and in many of these cases there isn't a way 
to really make them unique in a way where they remain logical. The workaround 
is to simply use the class/enum name to differentiate.

>             Project: TinkerPop
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: process
>    Affects Versions: 3.2.3

> This may not be a breaking change - it can likely be done with deprecation 
> along the 3.2.x line. The problem is that static imports collide in the 
> {{GremlinScriptEngine}} and therefore there are not only situations where 
> certain imports will be "hidden" but it can cause the system behave in 
> non-deterministic fashion depending on the {{ScriptEngine}}. For example, 
> groovy's compiler seems to only be able to detect the difference between 
> {{Column.values}} and {{__.values()}} if wildcards are used. If they are 
> imported directly then one of the other will fail.
> Here's a list of the troublemaker names that collide across different 
> methods/enums: or,and,id,values,key,local,value,sum,min,max.
