only way to access 'em is to use horrible
'zmod.other.module.symbol', which completely defeats my
purposes for public imports in my.module.
`zmod.symbol` works, too.
can i use import renaming, but still access my.module public
imports as if there was no renaming?
I don't think so. The point of the renamed import is that you
have to use the new name. If you want the new name to be
optional, import the module twice:
import my.module;
import zmod = my.module;
This way both `symbol` and `zmod.symbol` work.

the question is: is such behaviour of 'import' intentional, or
this is just bug and it will be fixed eventually?
As far as I can see, everything works as intended.
