You ask for a name. What about "from"?
local from = require"from" -- we don't want to zap the standard "require"
-- module "from" returns a function that constructs and memoizes
-- module objects, so another "from" with the same name returns
-- the same object
source = from "mymodule"
-- at least the following
-- source.module = require "mymodule"
-- source.dest = _G
source: import "myfunc" -- source.dest.myfunc = source.module.myfunc
source: into(myenv) -- source.dest = myenv (returns source)
Or if you love Python:
from "mymodule": import "myfunc"
from "mymodule": into(myenv): import "myfunc"
