If the scripts are just actions, you can register them as such and the
user can put them in their pcb-menu.res.  This already works.

I've been thinking of expanding the "exporter" API to include
"importers" and "wizards" (things that just act on the current board).
This isn't much different than plain actions, except that there would
be a place in the menu tree where they'd show up automatically.
