So... what's to stop this taking over a good deal of Finder operations? Have you tested this with large databases either in terms of size or number of files? There's a part of me that's intrigued by the idea of incorporating whole chunks of my existing data. That makes sense.

Some Microsoft Office applications mark their files as busy until they are closed. Other apps (e.g. TextEdit) can cope with their open files being moved, and so these will be imported immediately.

I've included that in my Finder sidebar. And it's available to me in all Save dialogs and Finder windows. It takes a while before the doc appears in Together, is there anyway to adjust the timing for imports to happen? Or have an import from folders now menu item?
