I propose that we use wildcart imports for static imports. (I believe that's why this thread was started in the first place.)
As Gary pointed out, often it is better to avoid static imports, but there are places where it is just too convenient. JUnit tests is one of those places. I really don't want to write Assert.assertEquals everywhere, just assertEquals is fine and pretty standard for JUnit tests. However, without wildcart static imports this becomes painful again: if one assertSomething method is explicitly imported, autocomplete will only show that one method. Until recently, the de facto standard was wildcart static imports in JUnit tests. I'd like to revert back to that.
