Description
The current imports block detection need to be improved, for example, this is a typical and common import block in applications that supports several versions of some library or different versions of python even:
``` python
try:
import ujson as json
except ImportError:
import json
from collections import defaultdict
import sys
def main():
print(os.uname())
a = defaultdict(list)
```
This is translated to
``` python
import json
import sys
from collections import defaultdict
import ujsonas json
try:
import ujson as json
except ImportError:
import json
from collections import defaultdict
import sys
def main():
print(os.uname())
a = defaultdict(list)
```
That is a complete disaster, in the other hand, the scope is fine:
```
print(scope.find_unresolved_and_unreferenced_symbols())
(set(['os.uname']), set(['sys', 'json', 'main']))
```
The importer has no clue about what is really imported in the file as its not able to know where the imports block really ends.
