Hi, Mark!

Yes, sounds like a good idea.

I’m unsure about this.  Normally we don’t want to allow that, because
that defeats the purpose of modules.  OTOH, in practice we occasionally
need this ability; I typically use @@ for that, but it’s not as nice as
a real import.

Any idea what other schemes do?
