std.string will get the boot

A next step is to allow to import all names with a specified tag, even if such names are inside more than one text file (the compiler can create a json txt file to speed up this retrieval):

import @tag(string);

To keep things tidy I think it's better to minimize the number of different tags inside each file, so they are similar to modules anyway: perfect hierarchies are sometimes too much rigid to represent real life complexities, but an approximate hierarchy is tidier and simpler to understand than an amorphous soup of tags.
