Reimport mesh while preserving transform data (and other data)

[CaliberMengsk]

It would be super nice to be able to right click on a stl that's already been imported and click reimport and have it automatically apply all the transform and translation data that was applied to the original file.

I'm working on making a part and it needs to be rotated after being imported. It just adds a lot of time and hassle to have to delete it and apply the rotation, position it where I need it, etc.

While not a required feature by any means, it sure would be helpful to the people that are using rapid prototyping to rapidly prototype.

This one has been documented for the development team apparently per the thread below. I'm really hoping they implement this one soon. I'm wasting a crazy amount of time re-setting up my S3D files every time I have to make one tiny adjustment to one of the component STLs. Insanely tedious and repetitive when you are working with continuous design changes and iterations.
