No, it's not dead easy. As ysth said, you have to see what words do, prototype-wise, in other modules.

You typically would have to know which words from that module are getting exported. There could be some system in how it's dealt with, when they're only relying on Exporter, but import is a plain class method. You can implement what it does however you like.
