maholtz on StackOverflow (http://stackoverflow.com/a/11447921/259953)
also provides another solution to this, which is very close to what I
originally had in mind:

    10 = IMAGE
    10 {
      file {
        import.cObject = USER
        import.cObject {
          userFunc  = tx_dam_pages->get_media_file
          uid.field = uid
          listNum   = 0
        }
      }
    }

Thanks for all the help :)
