Owner

The "Import from Another Viewer..." floater (#131, viewer_import) is only reachable from Communicate > Import from Another Viewer... (menu_viewer.xml ~688). It imports settings and key bindings as well as chat logs, so Communicate is the wrong home and people don't find it.

Change

Move the menu item to the Me menu (near Preferences / Quick Preferences), same Floater.ToggleOrBringToFront viewer_import call. Remove it from Communicate.
Add a button in Preferences > Advanced (panel_preferences_advanced.xml): "Import from another viewer..." opening the same floater, with a one-line hint (chat history, settings and key bindings from Firestorm, Black Dragon, Alchemy or Second Life).
Update the Beta 6 release note wording / website mention if it names the old menu path ("Communicate > Import from Another Viewer").
