     * it returns false for PROTECTED because protected members of classes can be imported to be used in subclasses of their containers,
     * so when we are looking at the import, we don't know whether it is legal somewhere in this file or not.
     * it returns true for INTERNAL, because an internal declaration is either visible everywhere in a file, or invisible everywhere in the same file.
