I'm debating whether `from foo import *` is a bad feature for my toy programming language. Forcing `import foo as f` and later `f::bar()` is so much more amenable to local static analysis. You also don't get issues with name clashes. It's certainly convenient though.

I'm trying mini projects to exercise my new programming language and find gaps. So far I've done fizzbuzz, JSON parsing, and a crude scheme interpreter. Any ideas for additional projects? They need to be well scoped because I keep finding e.g. stdlib crashes.

Language design question: what type should `while True {}` have? Bottom: It doesn't contain any `break` statements. Unit: Treat loops with/without `break` consistently. I already have lints that warn on unreachable code after diverging loops, so the Unit case feels surprising.
