Free goodie: when you import, all symbol are resolved via the
expected import
resolution mechanism. All ? No, the root package is imported
in the local scope.
foo(int a) {
import a.b.c;
// a is now a package and not the parameter a anymore.
}
What's bizarre about it? You declared a package symbol 'a' in
the local scope with the import declaration.
Because this is not consistent with module level import and that
is not consistent with how local shadowing works.
IMO you should fallback to import if local lookup failed.
