Honestly I don't really understand the negativity it is getting around here. The ability to import multiple items from one namespace is a well-established feature you'll find in many languages employing some kind of namespacing. I don't think the availability of what I lovingly call "IDE vomit" is a good reason to decline a feature - a programming language should be able stand on its own and not require IDE assistance for reasonable use. The syntax seems pretty obvious as well - but maybe I just had too much exposure to Rust, which makes extensive use of the same syntax. Nikita
