Yeah, that would be quite nice indeed -- we have discussed this a few
times (most recently a couple weeks ago, including whether Klint could
be used for that and for detecting "long import paths", i.e. when we
have a re-export we prefer, but that has edge cases; as well as
related bits like a `klint::moved` annotation -- Cc'ing Gary).

Cheers,
Miguel
