Sure, comma separated lists can be imported in virtually any spread 
sheet application. But this import is still a bit of a hassle. You have 
to go through a number of very general import dialogs. Also, these 
scripts are not (yet?) part of PCB. So they are not easily discovarable. 

To be really useful, export/import should be a single action from 
the GUI. Much like import schematics.
