Public bug reported:

Factored out from the very long bug #799067.

The standard import in a Sikuli script does not search for an imported
.sikuli in the directory containing the main script. Need to mention
that normal Python does look up in this dir first. For Sikuli there is a
documented workaround - http://sikuli.org/docx/globals.html - but it is
not intuitive for Python users mainly because it doesn't explain why
this change of behavior is required.

RaiMan adds:
It is the users responsibility to avoid naming conflicts
between .py-modules and .sikuli-folders. This behavior should be
consistent for any supported type of running a Sikuli script.
