Please answer these questions before submitting your issue. Thanks!

What version of Go are you using (go version)?

1.7

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

mac

What did you do?

If possible, provide a recipe for reproducing the error.
A complete runnable program is good.
A link on play.golang.org is best.

Try to run the newrelic go-agent plugin in Sublime Text with goimports and gosublime - since the plugin name is different from the package name, goimports keeps deleting it and making it impossible to use. I have to disable the automatic gosublime goimports functionality to use newrelic.

What did you expect to see?

Allow some plugins to be used even if they don't meet your naming conventions

What did you see instead?

Breaking behaviour.

Sorry, I'm not going to fix this.

If you don't follow conventions, you don't get the tools which are built on conventions.

You'll have to write your imports by hand, I'm afraid.

Reporting to newrelic as well.

Thanks, please do.

goimports will respect any of these options:

package newrelic in github.com/newrelic/go-agent/newrelic
package agent in github.com/newrelic/go-agent
package goagent in github.com/newrelic/go-agent (after #17546 at least)
