Feature Request: .schem / Sponge Powered Minecraft new Schematic compatibility

[ScottGarryFoster]

A note on schematic formats

Before WorldEdit version 7 (corresponding to Minecraft 1.13), the files were saved with a “.schematic” file extension in a format that was compatible with many other software such as MCEdit, Redstone Simulator, and more. Unfortunately, the format wasn’t suited for the new block format Mojang was migrating to, so a new format was devised - named the Sponge schematic format, using the extension “.schem”.

Note that WorldEdit can still import old “.schematic” files saved in older versions (or third party programs) through a legacy compatibility layer, but they can no longer be written to.

See:
https://github.com/SpongePowered/Schematic-Specification
and https://worldedit.enginehub.org/en/latest/usage/clipboard/#loading-and-saving where this was quoted.

Be nice to be able to import the newer file formats as MCedit has stopped updating.

Would love to see this feature implemented, currently having to go through a 2 step process to get it to work
