Users have requested that in addition to the export feature, they'd like to be able to do something like take a snapshot of their current phone backup or export in a native format that allows them to open the export with AllYourTexts as if the data was still on their phone. This allows users to delete texts off their device, but still view them with AllYourTexts.

Also interested in support for merging these snapshots with new messages.
