That's a borderline enhancement request. It might potentially break code too,
e.g. this currently works:

-----
class D
{
}

class C : D
{
    static class D
    {
    }
}
-----

With the enhancement this would have to become a conflict, although the
workaround would be easy: one could use 'class C : .D' (dot expression) for the
global class and 'class C : D' for the nested one. But I'm not fond of such
lookup rules where something in an inner scope ends up conflicting with an
expression in an outer scope.

Well I don't think I've ever tried to use either of these samples so I don't
have a strong opinion either way.
