Summary: import statements go unchecked

Initial Comment:
drjava Intetractions Pane allows you to import 
non-existing packages,like this:

**//this is OK in Interactions pane
      import blah.blah.*;
**

Although importing specific classes is checked:

**//this throws an error(ClassNotFoundException) 
     import blah.blah.Blah;
**
(Provided ofcourse that blah.blah.Blah doesn't exist)

Also,using  **Class.forName(String classname)**
throws a **ClassNotFoundException** even if the 
cocerned library is added to both system and drjava
(Extra) Classpath.

The same line of code works from a source file 
when run from drjava(the same class name,that is.)
