[closed] Re: Scope of step types

I've attempted to address this, but I think the final resolution may
depend on Alex's wording vis-a-vis circular imports.

/ Richard Tobin <richard@inf.ed.ac.uk> was heard to say:
| Section 3.2:
|
|   The scope of the names of the step types is the union of all the
|   pipelines and pipeline libraries available directly or via p:import.
|
| So there is exactly one scope for all the step types in a pipeline run?
|
| For example, if a pipeline imports a library, and that library contains
| a pipeline, and that pipeline contains declare-step, then those steps
| are visible in the top-level pipeline?  And in other pipelines imported
| from it?
