I suggests to make something like Node does: import "file.php" ($a, $b) so
$a and $b must be extracted from file.php context. All other variables
should be ignored.

Or, to avoid create more complexity and possible new keywords to import
syntax, maybe create a new function:

importx(string $file, ?array $extract = null) and requirex(...) (importx
and requirex is only pseudo)
