Indeed. Wildcard imports are to avoid for a number of reasons: They
might not work as expected on non case sensitive platforms.
Also, and this is much more important, it decreases the auditability: If
you don't wildcard import, you can always see where a Name comes from by
scanning the source.

Cheers,
