Proposal: A Better External File Design

[Adrian Crum <ad...@sandglass-software.com>]

Currently, external files are imported/exported using the datafile 
component. The problem is a lot of that code is bad and doesn't work - 
there have been a number of emails that confirm this.

I would like to redesign the external file import/export from the ground 
up to make it more reliable and easier to use. The existing code would 
stay there for a while so users have time to migrate to the new design.

I created a Jira issue if anyone is interested and wants to contribute:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5410
