Of course, if we don't want to encourage use of the `from`
template then this is not what we'd want. Does anyone have
any data/experience with from? All I know is my own usage so
feel free to chime in with yours.
One of the first things I do after a dub init is create a file
called internal.d with the from template in it. My only gripe
about this template is it's "autocompletion-able-ness" in IDEs
and if that can be handled.

Assuming you use DCD, even if CTFE is not handled it would be
possible to detect the signature and to do with "from" what's
usually done with an import.
But it needs to be in a well defined module. You can open an
issue in the repository asking for this and the feature will be
added once the D-runtime PR merged.
