It would be nice if the GAST bulk MEF import could be extended to have the
same functionality as the Admin web import, i.e:

Import actions:
[[BR]]* No action on import
[[BR]]* Overwrite metadata with same UUID
[[BR]]* Generate UUID for inserted metadata

Currently the GAST import just falls over with unique constraint violation
(uuid) when a metadata record already exists.

A secondary enhancement: after an error during GAST import, skip the mef
file that caused the error and continue to the next mef file instead of
the import process falling over completely.

Comment(by lpinner):

Thanks, I'd forgotten about this ticket.

If anyone's looking for a batch MEF uploader until this functionality is
included in GAST, there's a python script at
http://code.google.com/p/metageta/source/browse/tools/batchuploadmef.py
that we use as a workaround. It's not polished or pretty, but it does the
job for us.
