More specifically, what I'm wondering is whether or not it's 
considered a breaking change if your code still compiles and 
works exactly as it did before except for perhaps a deprecation 
warning during the build?

I could be misunderstanding what the proposed public import 
solution would accomplish but it sounded like std.uni could be 
upgraded with Dmitry's improvements while getting a new module 
name that is easier for newcomers to find.  It sounded like 
win-win to me.
