Research direction

Start by reproducing the ambiguous-import behavior in the VS Code Java extension and locate the logic that collapses imports to a wildcard. Determine how to detect whether the collapsed imports become ambiguous; done when ambiguous imports are not collapsed while the existing import-collapse behavior remains intact.
