Of course.

Yes, I will try to make it more failure resistant. However, it is a bit
strange that these errors occur, because the way the XML import works is
that it applies the found elements on the structure, instead of explicitly
saying "I need this in the XML". So, it should not break from too little
XML. Nevertheless, I will see if I can make this even more true for this
iteration.

Excellent! I will probably try to make a transfer feature which understands
the old format, but writes only the new format.
