It'd be helpful if one could use exported realms as a template allowing you
to overwrite some properties such as the realm name when importing. I know
you can do it manually by editing the file which is why I haven't suggested
it earlier. Also allowing you to control with toggles whether to keep or
regenerate keys and secrets would be useful.

need access to the server in order to get the file (making the system
compromised anyways). The change to current behaviour is that you would be
able to trigger the export at will without server restart.
