Specific layouts and masters can be imported, and Views can be imported to layouts, via the Organizer.

Of course this is only useful if the files share a common lineage / basis, but that's my point exactly: I sometimes have such a situation where a design option progresses, then an earlier iteration is preferred (or part of it) at which point saved views, or project map items (such as worksheets etc.) would be handy to have from the other 'more progressed' option.

Of course there are only a few instances where you'd want Proj Map items anyway, so no big loss...
Too much to ask?Not at all. Better merging means easier reuse of company assets. Essential.
