I just started with a fresh look at the D language and would
like to be able to rewrite this code:

void main()

writeln("Hello D");

Into more readable standard library name:
import system;
void main()
{
writeln("Hello D");
}
You can use named imports, but then you have to use the name as a
namespace:
```
import system = std;
void main()
{
system.writeln("Hello D");
}
```
These were the examples that might feel more readable and
natural than simply a three letter junction:
import std;
What do you think?
If you're worried about the readability of `std` by itself, don't
use it by itself. Import the specific modules you want:
```
import std.algorithm, std.range, std.stdio;
```
or whatever. It's a non-issue, IMO. It's not like anyone using D
doesn't know what std is.
