I see your point... but somehow I don't think it's that big of a
problem.

Well, it does not have to be in order to get fixed. The D module system 
otherwise avoids this kind of issue.

Should be fixed for those not willing to use the mechanism
currently available to resolve the issue, but I wouldn't loose any sleep
if it weren't.


There is no mechanism in place that reliably avoids silent breakage.
