Is there a way to suppress Kotlin's default import?

Is there a way to suppress (e.g., via a commnad line flag passed to the compiler) Kotlin's default import of multiple packages? or - alternatively - to be selective about it?

This is easy, just use your alternative to replace it by using as, and the default import will be replaced by your one.

Here's a simple example, if you want to use java.lang.String instead of kotlin.String, although it's not recommended, this is just an example.

import java.lang.String as String

// here, String is not `kotlin.String`. 
private fun main(vararg args: String) {

}

BTW there's a trick about refactoring, like if you want to replace all Any used in a file with java.lang.Object, put this after the package declaration:

import java.lang.Object as Any

And the implicit import to Any is suppressed and superseded by Object.
