Yii2 load all models automatically

Question

I don't like to declare every model as

use app\models\Country;

Really it bothers me a lot. I like the approach used in Yii 1.15 when you could load all models using import instruction in config like:'import' => array( 'application.models.*', )

Yes, I know it's not good for performance. But I have not more than 50 models and I care much more about my own performance rather than of performance of machine.

I had no luck in figuring out how to do it Yii2. All I found out is that it should be done via bootstrap option in main config file.

I tried the following:

 $config = [
   'language' => 'en',
   'id' => 'basicUniqueApp',
   'basePath' => dirname(__DIR__),

   'bootstrap' => [
     'log',
     'app\models\*'            
   ],

But it's not proper syntax.

Any ideas?

Declaring classes with "use" is something your IDE should do for you. Besides, once your class names begin to overlap (for example, yii\sphinx\ActiveRecord and yii\db\ActiveRecord) you'll quickly appreciate the power of namespaces. — Beowulfenator

You're trying to break down PHP namespace. That's not a good idea.
If you don't want declare on top model, You can call directly without declare like this:

$country = new \app\models\Country();

looks like a solution, but it makes code polluted with longer names (of course, it's good for big projecst but not for tiny ones. More fuss than actual use)
