Ability to export and then import all values in: Setup > Parameter Values (ADPVAL)

Reason: Customization patch may overwrite the production settings based on patch's configuration. I would like to export it, keep it as documentation of client-specific customization (client must keep a copy as it is their ownership), and if customization overwrites it, I can reimplement the parameter values by importing it and continue business as usual immediately.

I have successfully failed an implementation due to this unforeseen issue requiring a customization patch and production disaster recovery plan is triggered.

While I could build the import/export template, I am not sure if it is enough and not sure if it is just one table or multiple tables that I need to update as I am not skilled enough to deal with linked tables import.

Counter-point: I could just use Development > Copy parameter values (ACOPADO) but this requires that I have enough space to host another production folder in same environment, which I usually do not have the luxury to duplicate. While I could just create a new folder from base template and copyover the parameter values, it will take time and consume around a day for folder validation to generate it out so I could use the function.
