The mention of "Ben Mode" makes it sound like you're putting it in PCB's
Export dialog. "pcbfwd" and "sch2pcb" seem equally straightforward to me,
but the Export dialog is definitely not the right place for it, since the
intent is to *import* data from somewhere else.
From a user's point of view (that's me! :-) ) a function with this name should
be in its own menu item, something like "File -> Forward Annotate..."
