Currently the transfer server API looks like:

Import: /file/<path>
Export: /file/export/<path>

We distinguish import from export by the fact that export is a GET and import is a POST or PUT.

However for server<->server import/export the export is not a GET, so there is ambiguity in the second segment. /file/export/foo could mean export with path="foo" or import with path="/export/foo". It should change to:

Import: /file/import/<path>
Export: /file/export/<path>
