I like the idea of standardizing the transfer of this valuable
information.

It seems like the format would be more useful if it also included
descriptors so that a single file could be used to transfer a wallet. I
think such an addition would improve usability for advanced users who
might have many such CSVs to manage, and would then be able to more
easily select between them. Descriptor,Label pairs could also be useful
in the format for the transfer of a wallet with several sub accounts.

Thanks,
