Issue Summary
* Currently, import does not work in 1.x
* 2.x should have this, but it will be different than 1.x and encompass many types of objects
Comments
#1
This should all be handled with ctools, and any problems should be specific bug issues.
#2
Uh, no, the UI needs to be built out to import objects - ctools doesn't build UIs like that automatically (look at Views, there's a lot of UI logic in importing). Ctools makes this a little easier, but there's going to be glue code and checking that things are complete in order for this to work.
#3
Sorry, got some things mixed up.

#5
So, what needs to happen with this?
* New menu items for each object type.
* Some sort of error handling. This can be borrowed from the submit/validate functions for each object type.
* Saving into database.

tagging as beta blocker.
#7
Marking as 7.x and putting as low priority since no one has every really asked about it; I think there are few people that export from code and then import via the interface. Still, it's a valid feature.

+1 for Import. Would speed things up a bit moving out of D6. (using 7.x-2.x-dev)
