Rely on ‘runtimeparh’ in import autoload

Hello.

When is it good practice to use the import autoload form that relies on 'runtimepath'?

import autoload 'foo.vim'

I think plugins generally know where their autoload stuff is, and can gain a few milliseconds by pointing the import directly at it with a relative path.

And, the runtimepath form generally won't work when 'loadplugins' isn't set (when starting Vim with --clean for example).

So what is the feature for, when is it a good time to use it?
