I agree.  but management should be automated

I think the way to make it work is to think of the local storage is a cache
for an on-line library.  A user then would not explicitly import a symbol.
If he used an on-line symbol  then automatically that symbol is copied to
the local storage.  Later if the on-line symbol is changed he is asked if
the symbol should be updated.

The software would be shipped and installed with a good symbol set preloaded
in cache.
