Andre,
We haven't particularly focused on manual migration workflows because
we want to improve our upgrade process to a more automatic one in the
future.
We have a couple of bugs filed for enhancing the upgrade in upcoming
releases:
https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11448
https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=603
Check those out and feel free to comment on those bugs.
Thanks,
Aparna

Q. Was consideration given to also including a Reload option in the
migration dialog?
If a user manually exports a .chex file and gives it a custom name,
and
then declines the offer on exit to export to a .chex file (because
they
know they already have one), the migration dialog does not provide a
straight-forward path to reloading the user-initiated custom-
named .chex
file. Granted, they can choose the Delete Data option in the migration
dialog, and then proceed to go to menu File>Reload (which will anyway
delete the existing data (OOTB in this case). Minimally, this might be
something to add to the instructions or something. Optimal, to me,
would
be to stick a "Reload" button on the migration dialog that would do
the
same thing as File>Reload, but I defer to those who have thought
through
this workflow as to whether this additional button would add confusion
for the typical new user.
Thanks, Andre

Now on shutdown Chandler will ask if the user would like to create
backup.chex. On startup, Chandler will first try to open the
repository,
but in case of version errors will try to fall back to reloading from
backup.chex. In all migration cases the user will be presented with a
dialog which also has the old manual migration option.
