I must also admit that I use a few selective imports in the
packages I maintain, exactly in the situations you guys describe,

I think it's a per-dependency judgement call. If you're making broad use of
a package, then it makes sense to import(), but if the dependency on some
package is minimal, it makes sense to specify symbols with importFrom(), as
the link is more tenuous and there is less risk to things moving around.
