In the past, I've thought it would be convenient to have
something like
import io = std.stdio : writeln, write;
and allow someone to write
io.write("foo");
io.writeln("bar");
This is already in the language:
http://dlang.org/spec/module.html#renamed_imports
Well I knew that renamed imports were allowed, but I didn't
realize you could do re-named selective imports (the " : writeln,
write" part of it). I just double-checked and it worked. I don't
recall it working in the past.
I see that there's an example in the spec, but it is a little
more complicated than my example.
