Well, one reason for having getFirstMatchingDBSet() was that you don't need to 
create a connection to the database first.This, in turn, is a requirement to 
initialize gmCfgSQL. So I would rather say no unless you auto-connect to the 
backend in gmCfgSQL.__init__().

I guess that's the only possibility, then. I personally feel that splitting 
gmCfg in gmCfgFile and cmCfgSQL would be cleaner than adding all these "lazy 
import" code, but that may be a matter of taste.
