The current development version allows importing directly from the Descent Mk1 
(when plugged in via USB). This will also be in the upcoming Subsurface 4.8.2
We are looking into the possibility of downloading from the Descent via BLE 
(which would work on Android and iOS as well), but that's not possible, yet.
But what we have seems a lot easier than what you are proposing - which, oh 
btw, another user had already implemented a few weeks ago and posted about.

That, too, somebody has done. There are a TON of FIT to something converters 
out there. But regardless, I think the direct import that we can do now is much 
more convenient.
