[Conaclos]

Do you think that useImportRestrictions is really mature? We recently introduced a new option, and it is not documented yet. Also, I have the impression that the rule is missing some long-term vision.

[ematipico]

We did? Why wasn't that documented?

I promoted the rules because it's been there for quite some time, and it's been used already by other projects

[Conaclos]

We did? Why wasn't that documented?

Oh actually it is not merged yet: #2977

However, the rule has already an option under another form and is undocumented.
I think we should delay the stabilization of the rule.

To add to the objections for that specific rule, it's also quite confusing we have both noRestrictedImports and useImportRestrictions. The PR @Conaclos linked is actually for the former.

[arendjr]

Otherwise looks good 👍
