Sorry, I guess I misunderstood Mike's request.  The crossref parent is in the search results, but you guys are correct that it's not imported when a child is imported.  Importing the parent when clicking the "Import" button might be doable; Christiaan's more familiar with that code, so he could probably give a more definitive answer.  Avoiding duplicates would be tricky, though.
