Unable to import as when importing lime.app.Event

[NeeEoo]

I noticed when i tried importing lime.app.Event as a different name it wouldn't let me.

lime.app.Event is defined with one parameter as class Event<T>. It appears that the Haxe compiler wants you to add the parameter.

Whats weird is that it works with other generic classes, but not with lime.app.Event
see https://try.haxe.org/#Ae2b484D

and it doesnt work when adding it, since the haxe compiler only checks for identifiers during the import statement

Hmm... the error seems to come from EventMacro.
