I think it might be a little easier to handle if it's just presented as a textarea. Instead of going through "import" and "export" processes, you could just edit the list directly.
This would be really handy for bulk-*unwatch*es also. You could clear your whole list or do search-and-replace to remove a lot of pages.
All right, here's a suggestion, then; let's gut the existing watchlist editor and offer two modes; the existing "show it all with checkboxes to remove" mode, and a mode where the whole thing is exposed as a plain list of titles, and can be butchered to the user's content. How does that sound?
Note that it's possible to clear the entire watchlist at the moment with "action=clear".
