1. The syntax is ambiguous.
Is import.foo.bar.baz the symbol baz in module foo.bar, or the symbol
bar.baz in module foo?
I'd prefer syntax like (import foo.bar).baz and (import foo).bar.baz.
(I.e., the syntax of import expressions would closely mirror that of
import declarations, and would be unambiguous.)
That is a problem. I switched to the most attractive alternate syntax.

I'd still advise to match the syntax of other import declarations. What
justifies the difference? (Note that import(foo.bar.baz) is a string
import.)
