Create a YAML/YAML-like format for "text dump" submissions in forums, as an alternative for the formats people end up "making up"
Create a script that datters can use locally to convert the YAML format (or just variable human-readable text format) into the DoM import XML
Make import XML support all DoM fields and use names consistent with those DoM fields
Create schema for import XML
Use same XML format for export (instead of the "plain text" format that doesn't have all the fields)
Create API to allow specific data to be retrieved/added to DoM
- Allows emulators/dump tools to interact with DoM
  - Check ROM status
  - Submit data directly
Change-request system. I.e. Datters could accept/reject/edit/add comments to submissions by non-datters (maybe even people without logins)

Some formats should have certain file extensions and vice versa.
