Summary12167: Token Import CSV with different modes (replace, append and partial replacement)
Description

Currently mass modifications are done via CSV export and import.
That gets tricky when doing it via a activated survey.
The CSV import is only allowed when the token list is deleted.
It would be nice to allow importing CSV with a mode which overwrites existing tokens or appends tokens.

A maintenance mode is needed to ensure that nothing changes if you export and then import the tokenlist.
For a few fields like the "valid until"-date a partial replacement for selective columns would to the trick.
That way you don't need to stop the survey via deleting tokenlist or using a maintenance mode.

+1 can be great

[edit]
Maybe : after 'Duplicates are determined by:'
Add a button group/dropdown list : 'If a duplicate are found' : skip/runumber (except for token duplicate)/replace all/replace partial (exiting column)

Is the mass editing plugin (haven't used it) an option to apply on token GUI? Exporting / Importing is the workaround for not being able to mass edit the tokenlist quite often. Appending tokens still a valid case for this feature request.

I really think Mass editing is not a solution : a lot of times token are more than 1000 : then loading 1000 lines in browser is not the solution.

Exportt/import are really not a workaround for 'big database more easily updatable'
