[racket-dev] Should BSL signal an error on (require ...) in an unsaved buffer?

We're talking about relative requires only, right?

How are you proposing to signal the error?

In particular, my experiments suggest that "require" in an unsaved buffer implicitly requires things from (current-directory). Is this the right behavior? It would seem to me that we'd be better off signaling an error in this case.  No?
