[phobos] std.all

Does anyone have any objections to adding a std.all to Phobos, which would
just publicly import all of Phobos?  This would make it much easier to write
small script-style programs in D, since so much functionality that's built
into languages like Python and Perl is scattered across several Phobos
modules in D.  The library functions work as well as builtins after they're
imported, but having to add 10 import statements to a simple 50-line program
to get this functionality gets a little tedious at times.

If we add std.all, is there any easy way to automatically keep it in sync as
new modules are added to Phobos, or would this have to be done manually?
