What I mean is in the Atom proposal import affects the preprocessor
state (via exported macros). Up until now the only way to do that
was via the preprocessor directives (#define, #include, etc) that
all start with '#' (and are called "preprocessor directives", not
"language declarations"). It is not clear to me why import isn't
following suit.
