I want to write code like this in a snippet file

	import com.ibm.swt.widgets.*

	Shell shell= new Shell();
	shell.open();

	Import statements are not supposed to be declared inside snippets, however there is a mechanism to attach them to the
	page, along with global variables.

	We would need a new parser in order to process imports amongst regular statements+expressions, and it does not fit along
	with the intent of copying the snippet and paste it inside some method body, and it still works.

	Moving back to ITPJUI.

	the "attach" mechanism isn't useful enough to surface in the UI.
	>>with the intent of copying the snippet and paste it inside some method body, and it still works
	this is not a very stron argument. The goals of snippet support is to experiment with code not
	to write it so that it can be pasted into a method. 
	Moving to Active Issues.
