When a user is starting from a top-down approach (building the views) to design their data layers, and will be performing an import to create the view layer, it would speed up the iterative development of build / deploy / test (not preview) if when the view is built (on import), it can contain valid syntax so that the model will validate. Example of syntax could be, "Select '1'" or "Select 'view not defined'" or throw an exception. This would enable the modeler to implement the views at their pace and have it deployable, rather than having to go thru every view and add syntax before its valid. This is akin to JAVA and NOOP'ing the methods.
