            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

import std.stdio, std.file;
string s, fn;
write(fn, s);

I think there should be a writeFile alias to avoid this conflict.

There's a ton of these in Phobos (another common example is `copy`), and
they're not a problem due to how the module system works.

Your example is correctly an error. It's up to the user to disambiguate - the
user has a ton of options in doing so, including:

1 ----
import std.stdio;
static import std.file;

string s, fn;
write(fn, s);
std.file.write(fn, s);
------

2 ----
import std.stdio;
import file = std.file;

string s, fn;
write(fn, s);
file.write(fn, s);
------

3 ----
import std.stdio : stdoutWrite = write;
import std.file : fileWrite = write;

string s, fn;
stdoutWrite(fn, s);
fileWrite(fn, s);
------

4 ----
import std.stdio;

void func()
{
    import std.file;

    string s, fn;
    .write(fn, s);
    write(fn, s);
}
-----

The list goes on forever. Closing this because this is by design - if you still
have a problem with that design, it would need some serious convincing on the
NG to warrant any changes.
