Bug description:
WARNING: this is for trunk, not 5.0/stable!!

The data export wizard should be improved, specifically with regard to the "import compatible feature"

1) The "import compatible" option should be made more prominent (perhaps at the top of the form), and the list of fields that can be exported should be filtered automatically to prevent selecting fields that would not be compatible
2) A short explanation should be provided for this "import compatible" option. For example:
    [x] allow automatic import (help=filter list of fields to prevent exporting relationships that cannot be directly imported back into OpenERP)
3) The fact that "import compatible" is checked should not prevent exporting all relationship fields! It should only prevent exporting fields through *2many relationships, but should let you export many2one relationships, as the import of such lines is perfectly acceptable.
4) Test, test, test the updated wizard and verify that whatever is exported with this wizard can be imported automatically.

Thanks,
