Say you have a function in Main that is the same name as a function you've imported, but you don't want to rename it. But then you have to prefix it with "Main" each time you use it:

Main.functionName

Is there some way to rename Main or make a synonym for it, kind of like the "import qualified" trick, so you could do...

M.functionName
