Comment (by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [comment:26 vbraun]:
 > Also, if you had a shell script in `/tmp` then you wouldn't put `source
 foobar` into it. But if its a Python script then somehow the Python fairy
 is supposed to save you from import foobar?
 Sure, but doing something like
 {{{
 import sys
 }}}
 is very common in Python-land.  I don't think you can blame the user for
 doing that.
