This is the current syntax to import several modules from the std package:

import std.stdio, std.algorithm, std.range, std.array;


This is the syntax to import names from a module:

import std.stdio: writeln, write;


Currently this is not accepted, but do you like a syntax to import modules that is more consistent (the same as the one used to import names from a module)?

import std: stdio, algorithm, range, array;
