Modules ideally should not have dependency issues. ie You should be able
to run "python -c 'import bzrlib.XXX'" for any XXX and not have it fail.
 If there are circular dependencies or missing dependencies, we should
fix this.

I had thought you were just grepping the code, but if you are importing
it, then we should probably go via a different path.

 from bzrlib import initialize, plugin, commands
 initialize().__enter__()
 plugin.load_plugins()

 # do stuff with the registered commands. Which will now include plugin-
 # provided commands.

And then whatever else you need. Once you've done initialize +
load_plugins, I think everything should be in a happy enough state for
importing.
