Not the same: in import statements it unambiguously replaces a list
of (optionally as-renamed) identifiers.  Here, it would replace an
arbitrary expression, which I think would mean that we couldn't
differentiate between e.g.

   with (expr).meth():        # a line break in "expr"
                              # would make the parens useful

and

   with (expr1, expr2):

cheers,
Georg
