And it should be small job to modify report tables to also support data
values to csv with internal IDs in stead of the names (like we have today).
Then we would have what you need for a standard 1.4 import, 1 XML file with
metadata in 14 format, and 1 csv file with data and internal identifiers
referencing metadata in the XML file.
If we zip these two together with 7zip we have a standard 1.4 export file.
