Build: 3.1

1) Start with this compilation unit:

package p2;
import java.util.*;
import java.awt.*;
//remove ambiguity on List
import java.util.List;

public class A {
	List list;
	Collection colx;
	Vector v;
	ArrayList al;
	Image i;
	Insets insets;
	JobAttributes ja;
}

2) Organize Imports.

-> The comment in the imports is deleted.  I think organize imports shouldn't be
deleting user comments.

No plans here. Add import tries its best to keep the comments, but organize import  needs the full freedom with the import declarations.
