Read the information in the link above, as I think what "gpsbabel" supports is the best you can get readily available, cross-platform, and free of charge. Extending QLGT to support more formats (both loading and saving to) would be as "easy" as making it dependant on gpsbabel, and converting to/from GPX format, and process the data internally as if a real GPX had been opened. Or just silently use "gpsbabel" if available to do so, and avoid the dependency (i.e. Ubuntu QLGT packages declare "gpsbabel" as "recommended").
