I don't like this -- the word import is not sufficiently intuitive for the 
behavior -- if that has to stick (I'm not sure it does), then there should be 
a warning dialog following selection of import, something like "this will wipe 
out any existing music / information in the Rosegarden buffer"

I'm not the op, but, obviously, it was not intuitive for him, resulting in 
work / data loss.  Something should be improved.

Open   - opens a native file
Import - opens a non-native file
Merge  - merges any supported file into the current composition

We debated the nomenclature years ago, and this is what stuck.
