[Dx4win] LOTW, DX4WIN and contest logs

Hi Tom.

I just can't think of any good reason not to import all your contacts
into DX4Win. I would seem to me to be a lot easier to keep track/backup
of one large log instead of dozens of small ones. I use Writelog. After
the contest I import everything and delete all contest logs after a few
months have elapsed.

I'm pretty high with most award counts so it's rare that I work a new one during a contest, although a band credit here or there is possible.  I do not import my contest logs into DX4WIN because I don't feel the need to bring in so many unneeded records.  Lately, I've been thinking about uploading my contest logs to LOTW and then picking up only LOTW confirmations from the contest and importing them into my log when I do my normal DX4WIN LOTW up and down.  Any opinions on this? Pros and cons?
