It's not a one- or two-levels win, it's a transitive win. An unqualified 
call in one implementation would trigger only one level of import.

That said I agree it's suboptimal, but it's a net improvement in the 
compiler that requires zero changes to source code. According to Walter 
it would also get rid of some forward declarations issues.
