You don't need to import the record if you use the auto-gen'd factories, ->RecordName and map->RecordName. You can and also shouldn't import the java interfaces created by protocols.
It's possible to interactively develop this way, but you really have to know what's being eval'd and what types are invalidated to do so, and is generally not recommended. Extend-type is easier to use interactively than inline protocol extensions (which are faster) as it's modifying dynamic globals.
