If we need to care about that, D module system is a failure.
But I don't think it is a valid concern.
People already complain about conflict function names in
Phobos.
And I'd agree with them. At least inside of a library, care IMO
should be taken to minimize overlap (of course functionally
equivalent ones in different overload sets are fine, though).
But in case of "logXXX" this seems to be very unlikely, much in
contrast to "log" (std.math.log).
I disagree. People complain because they try to use imports in a
straightforward way, similar to includes. That should be
discouraged as a bad style in D. Imports should always be either
with explicit mention of exported symbol or aliased static
imports. And global module imports should be discouraged too.
