It was (correctly) pointed out that textual import breaks Bud and
Rebuild. It's also been pointed out that textual import may be an
unexpected vector for security problems.
Both can be resolved by only allowing textual import if a command
switch, say, -Jpath, is given. 'path' gives the location of where to
look for the file; and the file will be restricted to being under that
path. No -Jpath, and textual import won't be allowed.
For Bud and Rebuild, if there's no -J, they know there are no textual
imports, so they work as before. With -J, they always recompile.
