Import/export toolbars and menus between Command Layout Schemes.

We need to be able to import/export toolbars and menus between Command Layout Schemes. Every time I migrate to a new version I either need to rebuild all my custom menus and toolbars OR carefully add all the new toolbars and menus to my previous WE. It's insanely annoying and a waste of time. If I could just import my toolbars and menus into the default Command Layout Scheme, I would save SO much time every version. It'd also allow me to better customize Archicad because I wouldn't be worried that I have to redo work every year.

I just copied 6 toolbars from on profile to another by cracking open the exported XML files and C/P select lines of code from one to the other. It was technically easy, but geeky AF, and very easy to mess up. So I don't recommend it for most users. But does prove how easy this would be for Graphisoft  to implement.

I have done a similar thing with transferring workspace settings to new version via xml. 

The tricky thing is sometimes some toolbar and menu functions have changed guids between version.
