Oh, please no. I've had to play fixer to too many codebases that used interesting tricks to implicitly import code, without pointing to a source. Trying to suss out the origin of a specific function named 'get' in a 100k line application, in a file that invokes, but never declares it, is an exercise in frustration. Less context, please, more explicitness.
