Entry type is lost when re-importing a Buttercup CSV export #64

Hi.
I was not able to find any existing issue, so I'm filing a new one:

When exporting my vault, which contains a single group, with a single 'Note' entry, the resulting CSV looks like this:

!type,!group_id,!group_name,!group_parent,title,note,id
group,f9666f86-cb94-483f-bb89-99afa12656e2,General,0,,,
group,3af33a28-fb91-4a18-9ef5-9b9730ed5078,Trash,0,,,
entry,f9666f86-cb94-483f-bb89-99afa12656e2,,,Note-Title,1234,e17515ac-e87a-41e5-889c-88c279408cc8

When importing this (using 'Buttercup (CSV)') into an empty vault, the entry is now of type 'Login'.
Also, I noticed, that the custom field types are not modeled in the CSV export (e.g. multi-line notes will collapse on re-import).

Currently, I'm trying to move all my data (very specific format) to Buttercup. I planned to write a CSV file myself in the expected format. Unfortunately, the data is only partially modeled in the CSV file.

What am I supposed to do? Is there another well-documented file format which cover more Buttercup entry and field types when importing?
