I see I have created some confusion so let me try to be as clear as
possible.  I am trying to use @thin nodes but I am trying to create
them by importing existing @thin files.

In more detail -- I work with a bunch of @thin files that are housed
in an SVN repository.  It is not infrequent that I want to work on one
of the @thin files in some temporary .leo file or that I want to
create a new .leo file that may contain n of the @thin files.  The
only way I know to get existing @thin files into a new .leo file is to
use the import derived file command.  My problem is that doing that is
not working (for me) with the QT version of leo.  For some reason, it
appears to import the @thin file into the @thin node but the only
structure under that @thin node is the top level nodes -- all the rest
of the @thin file is missing.  Again, to be as clear as possible, I do
this all the time in the tk version and it works so there is something
about the qt version or in my particular installation that is causing
the import of an @thin file to produce an incomplete representation of
the @thin file.  I realize now that I should try saving the .leo file
with the apparently incomplete @thin node and see if saving or saving
and reopening the new .leo file causes the full @thin file to appear
but that shouldn't be necessary.  Existing .leo files which point to
these @thin files behave normally in the qt plugin  -- what is broken
for me is importing existing @ thin files into a new .leo file using
the import derived file command.
