Selection from a module (M.x) as syntactic sugar (open M in x) might be counter-intuitive #68

This syntactic sugar allows to select variables that are not publicly available in the module, but defined in other opened modules. This might lead to very counter-intuitive behavior, when variable is defined as private, as in the following code:

module M
  let x = 42
end
let x = 13
let y = M.x

Current implementation raises no errors and assigns 13 to y.
