I agree. The current behavior is just useless, because it is never 
desirable or even acceptable to have implementation details leak into 
the public interface. Currently not even

private import foo : bar;

hides bar iirc.

The sooner this gets merged the less code that inadvertently depends on 
undocumented symbols gets broken.


Does

public import foo : bar;

work as expected with your pull request?
