I agree heartily with this in general.  However, I find that as
a compromise to this, that using a "use" clause in the block of
code where you need it (declare/procedure/function level) can be
most helpful at times, if you don't over do it. For example,
I'll often use:

	declare
		use Ada.Text_IO;
	begin
		...
		Put_Line("...");
	end;

This works reasonably well because the use clause is close
to the code that you are reading. 

Just my $0.02 worth.
