What I have meant is that "importing from internet" functionality
is currently provided by dub packages and does not belong to
compiler. URL imports in your proposed form are absolutely
horrible.
It's an idea Go has picked up. The URL must refer to a Git, Bazaar,
Mercurial repository. The repository is clone locally so that the actual
build is local. To be honest it works quite well.
My understanding is there's significant controversy about the feature.
