Linked Mesh Import

Would be nice, if you could import meshes of other formats (Obj, Skp, 3ds etc) linked, so if you update the file, the model updates in your blend file too. You could then override the materials and such, without being destructive.

I think vdb files are handled like this. It should be expanded to work with other formats.

The .3ds format cannot be imported by Blender 2.80+ for some reason. The .3ds importer in 2.79 still works nearly perfectly.
