Just a thought: would this be better named DataExporter? Then on the EX side it is named "importer"? e.g. the EX importer talks to the EC exporter.

Yes. This file will be removed in a future version of the code, which just have the ImporterService. Maybe I should name it ExporterService, but since it's used by EX to import a session, I am not sure.
