The only hack around a language limitation I see in this thread
is the use of prefixes to distinguish between different enums.
Your comparison between enum and modules is misplaced. It's
better to compare enums with structs and classes.

module A;
struct Foo {
enum name = "foo";

module B;
import A;
void main() { writeln(name); } // don't think that should work

And it shouldn't work for enums, too. Imports should only pull
top level names into a scope.
