Are you sure ? The example you had, 

<value
column="Name" original="Import File Loader">Import souboru</value><value
column="Description" original="Load flat Files
into import tables">Natažení nedatabázového souboru do importních
tabulek</value>

looks like two languages, czech and english, and you wanted to put the
value of the "original" attribute as the source language, and the value
of the <value> element as the target language - we just can't do that
right now...

Your best bet here, I think would be to write some XSLT to create simple
XLIFF from those exported files. Let me know if I'm missing something ?

	cheers,
