Expand *all* star imports? about autoflake HOT 3 OPEN

@graingert - Why are you commenting on random 1+ year old issues?

Also, this is a refactoring tool, something that jedi specifically doesn't do (at least yet). How is that relevant.

Ok, this is slightly more complex then I'd hoped, because the name resolution happens at runtime, not parse-time (derp).

I think it should still be possible, at least for a limited subset of cases (read: no dynamic method lookup/stringization of functions, etc...).

I have a simple script that can walk the AST, and find start imports, and then use a NodeVisitor to walk the AST tree and find all calls (this should probably be extended to constants, too).

It's probably possible to build a list of the exposed functions/constants/etc in each star-imported import, and then use that to try to resolve out locals.
