Great idea. I have thought this before and forgotten to mention it.
Unfortunately I'm not going to implement it any time soon either.

Yeah, this has annoyed me before, especially with worksheets that
crash firefox. It then becomes almost impossible to edit them, since
they re-crash every time they are opened.

I have noticed that too, although not so much recently, and I have a
worksheet with a ridiculously large cell (since I need one huge cython
cell, probably just from my lack of cython-fu).

It seems like the best approach is save your code and use it via
"attach". That's what I do, and in practice I think it encourages me
to start thinking about cleaning up the code for submission
sometimes. But I agree, a mechanism for direct worksheet-to-worksheet
importing would be cool.
