Which begs the question: what's the point of `Cu.import` these days?
One major difference between Cu.import and ES6/require-style modules is that only one version of the script is created with Cu.import. This allows you to make databases using Cu.import--every code that calls that Cu.import file, whether a chrome JS file or an XPCOM component implementation, will be guaranteed to see the same objects once the call is made. There are definitely modules that rely on this.
