RE: Importing by reference

[Thomas Neuburger <thomasn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I tried Shift-drag on Windows (and the obvious variants) to see if there 
was a way to toggle import types, just as you can toggle copy/move 
operations on some systems -- no go.

A suggestion for the next engineering round -- make the platforms 
consistent (I think import by copy is probably the expected action), and 
use a modifier for import by reference, again consistently.

Two cents worth... :)
