I have already found an old bug report for this, but I do not understand why it has still not been solved. Can someone explain that to me?

Example:

a.d:
----
module a;

private import std.stdio : writeln;
----

b.d:
----
import a;

void main() {
	writeln("This is wrong.");
}
----

WTF? writeln should be private.
I don't like this. :P

Simple. No one has gotten around to fixing it, just like with any other bug that hasn't been fixed yet. IIRC, there was an attempt to fix it a while back, but the fix was faulty, and AFAIK, no one has presented a correct fix since. Just like with any other bug, someone has to step up and take the time to fix it and submit a pull request with the fix.
