I agree that the default imports should be sufficient for most typical uses. But it should be possible to create and share a Drake add-on in the form of a simple module to be imported. An import would be needed for that. Plus, even without Drake add-ons, it's reasonable to think that some people may have reason to import something from Phobos, or something from their own project, that wouldn't normally be used in most other buildscripts.
