> I finally got around to implementing the extended "imports" grammar and noticed issues with both the single-line and the multi-line grammar for imports. Imports grammar is as follows:
> 3.5.7.2.1 Single-line grammar:
> <import_name>: <file_URI>
> 3.5.7.2.2 Multi-line grammar
> <import_name>:
>   file: <file_URI>
>   repository: <repository_name>
>   namespace_uri: <definition_namespace_uri>
>   namespace_prefix: <definition_namespace_prefix>
> In both cases, the grammar specifies that imports have an "import_name". However, none of the YAML templates in the spec ever use such an import_name, and in any event, since there really isn't a use for such a name enforcing it would result in an unnecessary burden.
