Currently in the Importer, when user selects the 'Edit specification' option from the specification ribbon, they are asked to open an input file. In the long run we may want to make the specification editor more self-contained in the sense that you can edit the mappings without providing a file.

One thing that come up when investigating #30 was that we should show differences between the existing specification and the data loaded in Import editor. E.g. there might be tables in the specification that don't exist in the data and conversely, the data might contain tables that don't have mappings yet. These could be highlighed somehow so users can take actions to remedy the situation.
