Since I'm a sage-noob, I don't know if my answer is relevant
enough....However, the import statement in python, in general, has
been misused in the past.

An excerpt from "What's new in Python 3.1": 
http://docs.python.org/dev/py3k/whatsnew/3.1.html

A new module, importlib was added. It provides a complete, portable,
pure Python reference implementation of the import statement and its
counterpart, the __import__() function. It represents a substantial
step forward in documenting and defining the actions that take place
during imports.
