Yes,
in general the rules and definitions in an importing stylesheet have 
higher precedence than the ones in the imported stylesheet
in general the rules and definitions in an including stylesheet have 
the same precedence as the ones in the included stylesheet

I use import a lot to make sure that I can customize or redefine 
functions, named templates and all in a higher up stylesheet
pretty handy if you have large stylesheet trees that needs 
customization for for instance a different culture
