New submission from Matthew Suozzo <matthew.suozzo at gmail.com>:
Given the increasing use of long `from typing import foo, bar, ...` import sequences, it's becoming more desirable to address individual components of the import node. Unfortunately, the ast.alias node doesn't contain source location metadata (e.g. lineno, col_offset).
This metadata would be comparatively easy to add, backwards compatible, and would enable more precise diagnostics e.g. lints.
