Maybe the problem is just with package-less top-level modules?

Because the change definitely created lots of errors in my code about
things I was using that I didn't know were private.

For one, I was using std.conv.toString in a lot of places without
realizing that toString was not actually publicly aliased by std.conv.

I really think it should accessible via std.conv.  Why should I have
to import std.string to go from some type-->string, vs std.conv when I
want to go string-->type?
