It doesn't, so far as I know. Neither

     conf.setAutoIncludes(null, "mylibrary.ftl")

nor

     conf.setAutoIncludes("main", "mylibrary.ftl")

will put the macros in the main namespace. Is is possible to get them 
into that namespace?

Sounds like it might work. How do I get access to the hash that #import 
creates? And where?
