It would certainly need improving! Judging from the comments at the top
of the file, there is one case (apart from the use of imports) where
conversion is impossible (namely initial_value="variable_name" where the
referenced variable is defined by an equation). It also doesn't yet
handle things like reaction elements, RDF, and the containment
hierarchy, and the copying of units elements is dodgy (but could be
fixed by following the same strategy as for components, I think). You
would probably need more error checking/reporting too.
