improve import syntax

[Bob Myers]

My editor (emacs/tide) can auto-complete named imports as long as the
module name is there on the line.
I just type

```
import {} from './foo';
```

and then go back to insert things in the `{}` and get auto-completion.
If your editor can't do that, file a feature request.
