Bulk import is not important part.
Import to root namespace is required to have clean "\" namespace without
breaking "old code". We don't have this currently. If we force user to
rewrite old
code, it is not needed.

Let me rephrase, we have module functions/classes defined under "\".
Therefore,
we'll break almost all apps if we define module functions/classes under
"\php\somewhere".

It's just an option to cleanup legacy function/class/interface/etc without
BC. I'm not
enthusiastic for it even if it could give us a lot freedom for API redesign
without BC.
(at least for now)
