Description

Improves readability if generated code. E.g. if importing "github.com/foo/bar", alias it as "barXXX" where XXX is a number if multiple imported packages share the same name.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the code generation logic to see how imports are currently handled. Then modify the alias generation to use the package name as the alias, appending a numeric suffix if there are conflicts.
