I just want to clarify, to make sure I understood this suggestion. 
This would essentially force the (prefix ...) require-spec for all
imports, or at least for all (planet ...) imports, AND require that no
other identifiers bound at the top level of the importing module
(including both internal defines and other imports, even non-planet
imports) could have that prefix.  And restricting the prefix on
non-planet imports would probably require us to put prefixes on them
as well.  Is that correct?
