As a semi-counter point, these are all operations that relate to "bring 
external functionality into the current scope". 

Based on this, what would make the most sense to me is similar though distinct 
syntax. 

So something like "use extern …", "use mod …", "use std::…". 

Those might not be the right ones, but it seems like they should be tied 
(syntactically) somehow.
