  The import seems to be localized to just the mixin & the 
template. Makes sense since you don't want to be cluttering the 
namespace with other imports.

  The only thing you haven't shown is that the 'alias m' is 
identified and accessible. Adding it in the compiler doesn't 
complain; Only line 11 (alias wln1) complains for me DMD w32 
v2.071.0.
