Please don't ask, it's never going to happen. Okay, so some have decided to provide exported .xml files for import. There are some things you should be aware of with .xml file importing. | Please don't ask, it's never going to happen. Okay, so some have decided to provide exported .xml files for import.

The XML file only has part of the necessary configuration contained within it. This is problematic if you wish to replicate your overview setup between two computers, or two EVE instances on the same computer, because you have to do a lot of manual configuration after the XML file import anyway. Specifically, the Appearance and Column tabs are not exported when you export your overview settings. | The XML file only has part of the necessary configuration contained within it.
