Add functionality to import and merge a reverse engineering process. This will allow a user to reverse engineer and merge. Adding new objects, and merging existing objects.
Niels does not want the merge. We'll support a rather naive import: only tables and views can be imported (with corresponding constraints and indexes), but if an object happends to be in the diagram already, a copy will be imported under a different name (Table, Table_1, etc.).
It will be possible to import stuff from a database of different type, in which case the necessary conversion will be performed.
Of course, I would rather see a real merge (see attached screenshot).
