Sorry, that part was mistaken, and not in line with standard Haskell. 
Here is the correction, and more in line with standard Haskell:

import SinisterlyNamedModule(
   Parsec@GoodType(State@CaseOne, Cont@CaseTwo,
                   stdin@gfa, runST@gfb, fromList@gfc
                  ),

It also streamlines doing this. Assume SecondModule:

module SecondModule where
data Functor = Applicative { join :: String }
              | Category { join :: String, fix :: [Functor] }

Then to import and rename:

import SecondModule(
   Functor@Personnel(Applicative@Worker, Category@Supervisor,
                     join@employee_name, fix@subordinates
                    )
)

join is consistently renamed to employee_name, in particular.
