# I couldn't find a way to make the code work as a standard function
# call. But at least since it's an unmodified copy of import_item,
# which is used extensively and has a test suite, we can be reasonably
# confident this is OK. If anyone finds how to call the function, all
# the below could be replaced simply with:
#
# from IPython.utils.importstring import import_item
# return import_item('MIRROR.' + key)
