Say you have a module foo.rs containing a struct Foo; where you've forgot to add a pub.

When you try to use foo::Foo, you'd get error: failed to resolve import: foo::Foo.
This may be puzzling.

How about a message in the tone of "there is a foo:Foo but that is private, so i am afraid i can't let you use it"?
