The current way to import datasets is far to cumbersome and feels like win 3.11

Context:

Users often want to have quick look on the data they just acquired. It steals like 10secs of your life importing a file in glotaran which is too much.

Proposal:

Glotaran should remember the last folder when using the the open dataset option
Option screen: Glotaran should offer the option to import arbitrary file endings and let the user choose which scheme to use
Personal file format: the user should have the option to import e.g. a .dat as "time explicit" file and make Glotaran remember the choice for future so it will not ask for every one of the 100 datasets
drag'n'drop: dragging a file (or multiple) from explorer, nautilus, etc into a "Dataset" folder in the tree should add the datasets. If the dataset is not recognized the option screen for data import should opened.

Since GlotaranApp will stay a Netbeans App, I think this changes can already be done for Glotaran 1.X and be inhereted by Glotaran2 without problems..
