That's exactly what it means. Likewise a base class cannot add an import
that will be visible by it's sub classes.
string mixin will still work though.

where is all this mentioned in the specs?

What about module level ?
I suggest you look at the linked P.R.
It should describe the new import behaviour, as well as the new lookup rule
(previously underdocumented).
If it doesn't address all your questions, feel free to comment on it, so it
can benefit everyone.
