On the Writer it is possible to move a canvas FeatureType between writers using the 'move' function. With Readers though you have to reimport the FT onto a new Reader. It's very common that I'm given workspaces that have multiple unnecessary Readers defined, all with say 1 FT and for best practice its necessary to consolidate the Readers. Deleting and reimporting is quite a bit of effort so I wondered if an alternative could be explored. I appreciate this function would likely need restricting to being between 'like' formats.
