I remember that there was introduced a syntax to import multiple names from the same module without having to type out the module name repeatedly, to avoid having to type e.g.

import MyModule.f, MyModule.g

but I can't remember what it was, and there is no example in the Julia manual chapter about modules. What was it? Let's document it!
