Java unnecessary imports are underlined with a wavy red line.
I agree. I would find it very annoying to have to remove unused
imports to get it to compiler. First off, I tend to have "all"
imports that import everything.
That's odd, first you say you think D would be a failure if it needs an
IDE and now you say that the only way to avoid unnecessary dependencies
you should rely on an IDE =)
It's not a problem that needs fixing. It's not a bug, it's a stylistic
issue. IDEs are good for that.
I really think this should be a compiler feature. Make it a warning then
(and while you are at it, make it a *real* warning, not a warning-error).
Secondly, what if I version out some code, wouldn't want to version the
import too.
Why?
Because I often block out and unblock out code during development.
Having to go up and dink with the imports too would be quite annoying.
At some point, adding too much of this nagging stuff into a language
will drive people away.
