My question is simple: Are there cases where you want to test if you can import something, but you don't want to *actually* import it? If not, should we perhaps just do this?

	#if import UIKit
		// UIKit-based code, has UIKit available
	#elseif import Cocoa
		// OS X code, has Cocoa available
	#else
		// Fallback
	#endif
