Hello, has the idea of nested imports been explored yet?
For example if you have:

import gtk.Application : Application;
import gtk.ApplicationWindow : GAW = ApplicationWindow;
import gtk.Nested.This: Symbol;
import gtk.Nested.That;
import gtk.Entry;


With nested imports you would just write something like:

import gtk(
    Application: Application,
    ApplicationWindow: GAW = ApplicationWindow,
    Nested(
        This : Symbol,
        That
    ),
    Entry,
);

It would reduce some typing.

Define a module with imports and aliases you need and import this module instead of the direct library imports.
