But these are implementation details, right? I'm not suggesting
modifying the current implementation in any way. Ḯm suggesting that
there could be a convenience
layer that you just give a node-splitting regexp and it would be able
to do the import.

For ini files it would be like ^\[.*\]$. Why should someone doing an
ini importer care about ivars and whatnot?

BTW, if there was regexp based importer you could specify the import
syntax right in the leo file, without writing any python.

Something like

@importer *.ini

- @nodesplit ^\[.*\]$
