`--import` still produces errors `SCRIPT ERROR: Parse Error: Could not find base class`

Tested versions

v4.3.beta2.mono.official.b75f0485b

System information

Windows 11

Issue description

I have created a new plugin with custom classes using class_name. By nature, the ".godot" folder is not transferred to a repository, so Godot should recreate the cache.

But even --import does not work as specified ;) This means that if the .godot folder is missing, Godot will show these error messages SCRIPT ERROR: Parse Error: Could not find base class when first started.

This kind of error is already a long term problem, and it frustrates me that this cache error has feeling no focus. I would expect the editor to have its own cache under control and rebuild it when needed. This should be the default, without the hassle of having to use a workaround like --import.

Steps to reproduce

Use the attached project Two scenarios: a) delete the .godot folder open in Godot editor, you see the errors at startup

b) delete the .godot folder use command line $GODOT_BIN --import --headless
