The FUD in the helpfile regarding the importFileInto command, is not
because the importFileInto command is leaking, and MM doesn't fix it. It
is because a memeber than has been importFileInto'd, cannot be unloaded.
It cannot be unloaded, because director has no way to reload it
afterwards. This is why the help says memory can be taken up quicly. If
you just .erase() the member after you've used it, there' no problem at all.
The .filename= approach doesn't suffer from this AFAIK, so in your case,
this would be probably the best thing todo, altough importFileInto could
actually be just as good.
