A few months ago, I asked about the import/export capabilities, and got a promising reply, but the topic is closed now - and I was hoping to follow up. In our MultiSite network, we use a plugin that restricts peoples abilities to create and edit forms, and just lets them view their Entries. The only real problem we've been experiencing is that this means users can't do Excel exports of their entries, because giving them that capability also gives them the ability to import/export forms.
I'm hoping that these capabilities (and UIs) can be split up in the future. Thanks
