Why not leave it as it is and only change the compiler to

the symbols imported can be used in the declaration?
e.g.
fun(Range x) if(isInputRange!x)
{
import std.range;
auto a = x.front();
}
That would make it problematic to have function declarations.
So, I no longer propose to change nothing except the internal
compiler behaviour.
Now I propose to additionally change the .di-file generation to
also add all local imports to the start of the declaration
file, so that having this file gives ALL dependencies of the
declared stuff.
This makes me think about the current .di generation. As far as I
remember it only strips function bodies and leaves everything
else intact. It could already try to remove unused imports. And
in the future it could replace regular imports with
auto-generated DCD-style imports.
