Warning about unqualified implicit imports

I would like to have a GHC option like -fwarn-unqualified-imports that warns about those kinds of imports that require to have A.B.C.* constraints for PVP-compliant packages. Namely, GHC should warn about implicit unqualified imports like

import Very.Special.Module
import Another.Important.Module hiding (open, close, )
