Rose Ames added the comment:
Changing the imports only is straightforward, but I'm having trouble detecting
and changing future uses of the variables, without also clobbering user-defined
variables with the same names.
I notice some of the current fixers have similar problems, for example the
itertools fixer changes:
```
def imap(): pass
imap()
```
to
```
def imap(): pass
map()
```
This patch is a little smarter than that, but it only detects top-level
definitions. For example, the lowercase in
```
class Foo:
def __init__(self):
self.lowercase = "blargh"
```
still gets renamed.
I can work on this more, but would like to know:
a) whether this fix is still wanted
b) how smart it needs to be
c) whether my approach is reasonable. I feel like there should be an easier
way.
