This is not what I am talking about and it seems quite dangerous to have

Why dangerous?

D already disallows:

     int x;
     {   float x;
     }

as an error-prone construct, ...

module b;
int x;

module a;

void main(){
    int x;
    {
        import b;
        x = 2;
    }
    import std.stdio;
    writeln(x); // prints 0
}
