Agreed, esp. given the level of care that must be taken with loading your own externals (I was about to post a list of gripes with that, but it would be one of my longer posts and most of mine are already so long that no one reads them so I'll spare the bandwidth).
I believe this is another area SuperCard got right: you import an external into your stack file (what that tool calls a "project" file), and that's it. You never need to think about them again. From that point forward they're immediately and always available to your scripts.
One simple move, zero lines of code. Simplicity.
