Yes, it has been considered before. There is an enhancement from
ages ago in bugzilla.

The syntax you proposed doesn't work, because it conflicts with
selective imports:
===[std.d]===
module std;
void stdio() {}
===[test.d]===
import std : stdio;
Does that import the stdio function from module std, or the
module std.stdio?
You could use something like this:
import std.(stdio, xml, algorithm);
Of course, there's many variations (square brackets, curly
braces, no dot, no commas...) but it's all bikeshedding.
