I was wondering if
`static import std.file;`
`if (exists(file))`
will only import `std.file.exists` or the whole lot of

imports is now.
Modules are always imported wholesale as far as code generation
/ linking is concerned.
To elaborate - this doesn't imply that the code of everything in
that module will always be placed in the executable. The exact
details depend on the implementation and configuration (see e.g.
GCC's -ffunction-sections).
