If I do as you suggested, it does produce the output I want, but wouldn't it be more visible if the output could be shown even without the ansible author entering the name value?

I was not clear enough, I was posting the case in which the play did not have that variable defined, if it comes from inventory or extra vars or runtime composition in other ways, it won't be available for templating so you cannot show which file, much less which tasks it would include.

I was only referring to the part about the file that import_task refers to. Does it also retrieve the name of the file referenced by import_task at runtime?
