[Zope-CMF] CMFSetup profile changing

In the Properties tab of CMFSetup, you can choose an active site  
configuration, among the snapshots and the registered profiles.
This sets the current context_id for the tool, and loads the import  
steps, export steps and toolset for that configuration.

When you switch to a new base configuration, the import/export steps  
are loaded on top of the current ones without purging. So for  
instance if you:
- select CMFDefault Site. The import steps now comprise 8 steps.
- select CMFCalendar. The import steps now have an additional  
"Various Calendar Settings" step.
- select CMFDefault Site again (or a third-party base (non-extension)  
profile). The Calendar step is retained.

Is this intended ? If yes, why ? My reasoning would be that when you  
import a base profile, you want just that, not what was previously  
there.

I'll fix that if we agree it's a bug.
