Another option would be to simply alias the global imports. For example, this
works:

mixin template T()
{
    import std.stdio;
    alias Y = std.stdio;
    aliax X = Y.File;
}

I know that this would require to alias every single import, but it is close in
spirit with the sample that you have given.

Is it ok to close this as INVALID?
