You know, it occurs to me that import is an astonishingly bad name for this
statement. Poorly named methods and properties can really screw up
understanding, and not just in third party code. Sometimes I think properly
named variables or methods can do half your coding for you. Why is it not
called something else? I can think of three better names immediately:
pointTo, locate or classAt
