Wildcard imports considered harmful

without IDE

Of course you can not.
But take into consideration that you also cannot do any other cross navigation without IDE.

 val x = getObject
  x.doSomeThing() // how would you even find where the method is declared?

IMHO: Import itself can be considered as boilerplate code in some high level areas
So wildcard imports can be just less evil.

I don’t see how implicit functions, implicit conversions, etc would replace scope injection without adding a lot of bloat (effectively making that pointless).
