I think similar cases were discussed in the comments on those pull requests.

Wow. All of the comments in the PRs that you guys linked to make this look like quite a mess, even if we're ultimately better off. It does seem pretty messed up to me though that you can't use a symbol's full import path when you've imported it selectively. I would have expected to still be able to do that, just not have access to any of the other symbols in the module that it's in - unless they too were selectively imported.

From official D documentation (Selective Imports):
Specific symbols can be exclusively imported from a module and bound into the current namespace.

std.stdio.writeln("hello!"); // error, std is undefined

So they never has been intended to works with FQN
