This looks really clean for code modularity.

import io = std.stdio : {writeln, write}, ...

What does this add? A line like below would be confusing.
import io = std.stdio : {writeln, write}, writefln;

The following code compiles and the imports are less confusing.

import io = std.stdio : writeln, write;
import std.stdio : writefln;

void main()
{
    io.write("foo");
    io.writeln("bar");
    writefln("My items are %(%s %).", [1,2,3]);
}

Its more like this:

import oo = {std.stdio : {writeln, write}, std.algorithm: {filter, map}, …};

oo.writeln();
oo.write();
oo.filter(...);
oo.map(...);

Someone gets it! ;)
