didn't you see the bit where import == copy in so if the user goes and
deletes/moves/renames the original things don't break? theme files are
continually paged from all the time - data is loaded continually from that file
based on indexes loaded and cached. you are not meant to go outside the little
sandbox of themes safely copied in. (we can't do anything about a user manually
finding that path and messing around but the intent was to not make it easy to
shoot yourself in the foot)
