--- Comment #2 from Martin Nowak <code at dawg.eu> ---
Yes, there is little chance to support functions, as the same symbol would need
to be resolved differently, e.g. in `.fun.fun` it's the module, but in `.fun()`
it's supposed to be the function.
While the type resolution seems inconsistent, it is a common Java idiom to name
source files after the main class/type, and it's widely used in (older) D
libraries.
