It would be great to provide APIs for that either that we can implement in Groovy and/or to implement this part fully in script. It might be better in Groovy. So I would suggest we write an Extension interface with a default implementation and a way to provide alternative implentations. This would probably mean that each of the implementation could take a arbitrary number of parameters.

So each individual conversion is kept independent and the memory load is not more than what is needed to import one section. Ludovic > I haven't decided which method to go with yet.
