[M3devel] no need to import direct dependencies if also indirectly dependent?

Hm, it looks like there is both a direct and indirect dependency here on sysutils.
indirect through m3quake
direct use of TextUtils
Shouldn't the builder /ideally/ require you do import directly what you directly depend on?
(and not import directly what you indirectly depend on, already correct)
Or would that be a bit inconvenient?
I don't care really, I'm not pushing for a change, but wouldn't that generally be the right design?
