Suggestion

For the code:

import { a, b, c} from './xyz';

console.log(a, b, c);

Add a refactoring to convert the import to:

import * as xyz from './xyz';

console.log(xyz.a, xyz.b, xyz.c);

With a rename being triggered on xyz

Use Cases

I can see this being useful:

  • List of imports become too long and unmanageable.
  • Make it clear in code where a name comes from
