This is intended. classone is importend once and it imports classtwo. This happens only once before http requests arrive. Python caches modules.
track changes only affect import done explicitly at runtime (when http requests are processed). Changing this would require that web2py keep track of all dependencies (who import who). This would slow down everything.
