Description
Hello,
I remember having a feature in another ide (Intellij Idea using java), in which when I copied some code from a part of my program and pasted it into another, it automatically imported everything that was needed to make the code compile.
It would be greate to have a feature like that for when we copy paste rust code from a part of our program into another.
