Hey all, I really like the idea to extend the import settings dialog. It is Kind the same that IntelliJ does: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/run-for-the-first-time.html#import-product-settings if you scroll down a bit, you can see how it looks for selecting the user theme (LaF and editor). Test it on your own, just download an JetBrains Application, start it for the very first time and have a look how it works.

Thanks! Was mentioned in my first response here. There's already been a bit of discussion on settings import because the way it searches for previous versions is far from ideal now, considering things like LTS -> LTS, beta -> release and custom userdirs. It was the last version-related thing still hardcoded, and although that's changed in 11.3, it's not ideal. So, a dialog that allows for settings import, and if not guides people through some common setup, including LaF seems an improvement to me, actually speeding up users getting the IDE configured - system LaF or cross-platform light or dark (both FlatLaF) being the obvious choices for appearance in my opinion.

That plugin appears to both be dead and under a license that makes that unlikely. Maybe some improvement of existing behaviour in the IDE here though?
