A way to preserve date added when importing into osu! stable?

[dddictionary]

I notice that the exporter itself can detect when a beatmap was added and filter by that. However, when going to import it into osu! stable, I just ctrl+a the lazerexport folder content's and drag and drop into osu! This causes the date added filter/sort to break and I loose that metadata. Are there any ways to preserve this?

Importing .osz files, osu! will always set the date added time (as it should).

This should still be possible, at least with the "Song Folder" export mode. It would be possible to set the timestamps on the files to preserve the order. We would have to identify exactly which timestamp stable uses to order the beatmaps.

I am not sure when I will look into this, but I do think it would actually be very valuable feature for the intended use of the program.
