450	allow to define collections and document-types to be exported (even if no documents in the export-set are using them)	mpo@…		"[jira2trac import : issue created on April 13, 2007 8:57:11 AM CEST [http://issues.cocoondev.org/browse/DSY-450] ]


Currently the export-set format can only describe the documents to be included in the export [[br]] Automatically this will pull related definitions for collections and document-types (and parts and fields) into the export so they get created during import (actually, collection-definitions are not even part of the export, they are just created as needed during import)

When using the export in a 'project development' scenario however it is useful if document-types and collections could be created during import even if the imported set doesn't actually contain any documents for those types or collections.

Implementing this would therefore assume [[br]] 1/ a change to the export-set.xml file format (see [1]) so it can list extra collections and document-types to be included in the export, and [[br]] 2/ a change to the export format [2] so it can contain collections to be explicitly created
