For what it's worth, I wrote a simple JSON importer for my app. I hand-write (or later will build a tool to write) the core data, and use the importer to upload it. It's mostly direct dict->entity mapping, but there is also custom code where appropriate for reference fixing, validity checks, etc. This has worked well for me.
With this, I can upload my data to dev appserver or production easily, and keep data in revision control.
