Yes. A import feature for subtitles would be great. I just went through the pain of adding subtitles that I created in Aegisub for my latest video podcast. I transcode my videos into several formats and since ffmpeg does not support hard encoded subtitles I had to pipe them via mplayer into ffmpeg. This was not fun at all, but it did work.
I am CCing the Lumiera alias in case someone wants to make this a feature in Lumeria at some point.
