[Radiant] /admin/export

[James MacAulay]

Thanks for the clarification. I see now that there was previous  
discussion about this not too long ago (in the "Informal Competition"  
thread), so my apologies for that bit of redundancy.

It looks like it would be pretty straightforward to write an export  
script which makes setup_database-friendly templates. I'd be  
interested in tackling this myself, if other people think this would  
be a good thing to do. Are there any major stumbling blocks I should  
be aware of?
