Hi Miko,

Follow below steps.

1) Open .stf file in notepad.
2) Copy & paste all text in excel file.
3) You will get two columns in excel, Key & label.
4) Use text to column feature under Data menu of excel.
5) Use delimter as "." & convert it to columns,
6) This will result in 3 columns
7) Now, put a filter on first column & select custom label.

Voilà you have custom label translations now. If you want, I can help you with excel. Send that .stf file over.

Hi Miko,
If I am not wrong, you are looking for functionality to import & export translations, right? 

If yes, you can export & import translations in bulk using below feature. Works based on .stf file.
