That occurred to me, and I thought about proposing the same thing you're suggesting, but on second thought I wasn't so sure: If I need to disambiguate between "std.algorithm.find" and "foo.bar.baz.find", it might be nice to be able to just say "Meh, just...that one in Phobos, ie 'std'". Or "Just go with that 'foo' one". I could go either way, really.
