- -1.  The current behavior is as designed:  The '.preserve' file is
intended to keep from blowing away content which does *not* have any
data in the importted profile.  I think we may need to kill off the idea
of running "content-load" imports from within the GS tool at all, rather
than wrange about conflicts in semantics.
