I'm not sure how much of an issue it is, really, but the
idea has merit on its surface: the notion that there is
somewhere betwixt manually importing a symbol at a time
and simply importing everything.

Of course I'm guessing you could probably fiat something
like that now with an instance of a module-level class
or some such.
