Import happens during parse time so it builds up actions from each
file based upon the classes valid at the time - so classes defined in
an earlier file will be used but a class in an imported file will not
be "usable" in the file that does the importing (assuming I've
understood this correctly); once the parsing is finished then actions
defined by the actionsequences will be run through in the order given
in the actionsequence,
