This is complementary to bug 3503 (make imports static by default). If that is the case, it would be a good idea to provide a way to have the old behavior, since it can be useful for a small set of applications (like small scripts). A proposed syntax could be: import foo: *;

Here is an example on how this should work with modules and packages: mod.d: void f() {} pkg/a.d: void f() {} pkg/pkg.d: void f() {} x.d: import mod: *; import pkg: *; void main() { f(); // mod.f a.f(); // pkg.a.f pkg.f(); // pkg.pkg.f }
