D2's overload sets would help here more than an if() constraint.  But
even still, it might be ambiguous.

You don't actually have to import one statically.  Just alias the one
you want to take precedence in the current module:

import std.string;
import my.templates;

alias my.templates.find find;

Now whenever you use 'find' it will use my.templates.find.
