I'm guessing you come from the land of C++, where the compiler wants to know
every detail.
Don't bother with this:
> from Composite import Composite

Leaf can accept any kind of object as the composite.
What ever methods the Composite has will be accessible.
It's a beautiful thing once you get the hang of it.
