It could be kinda like pspice where you can "add local" or add to your 
general settings - but that's actually a recipe for disaster on a 
multiuser system...
How about a "import settings from another project" button? The only 
thing it needs to do is to give the user a directory selector and then 
copy that gafrc to current project dir.
I think the utility should be reachable from within gschem. Is that a 
problem?
