lang (syntax | modules)
Add syntax sugar for importing a module and items in that module in a single view item.
Make use clauses more concise.
The mod keyword may be used in a braced list of modules in a use item to
mean the prefix module for that list. For example, writing prefix::{mod, foo}; is equivalent to writing
use prefix;
use prefix::foo;
The mod keyword cannot be used outside of braces, nor can it be used inside
braces which do not have a prefix path. Both of the following examples are
illegal:
use module::mod;
use {mod, foo};
A programmer may write mod in a module list with only a single item. E.g.,
use prefix::{mod};, although this is considered poor style and may be forbidden
by a lint. (The preferred version is use prefix;).
Another use of the mod keyword.
We introduce a way (the only way) to have paths in use items which do not
correspond with paths which can be used in the program. For example, with use foo::bar::{mod, baz}; the programmer can use foo::bar::baz in their program
but not foo::bar::mod (instead foo::bar is imported).
Don't do this.
