FWIW if you get an "identifier not found" error while compiling, the
context menu in the Message View has a "Search identifier" command. It
opens the Code Browser (which also could be much cleaner) and searches
the class. Then you can open the context menu for the unit found and
select "Use unit FOO in unit BAR".
