What do you mean with this? A video add-on taking advantage of the import concept?

Yes. The big differentiator between Media import and current Sync addons, for Plex/Emby/Jellyfin, is that it co-exist comfortable with imports from other sources. That is a feature which many desire but don't realize that it is already possible.

That issue is about exactly that. And based on observations of the number of video addons currently exporting strm files, many are already using something similar. I will start asking again as soon as there is a v19 final. Usually there is a lot of attention and activity right after release.

FYI, for the Mezzmo media server platform the Mezzmo Kodi addon does a full sync to Kodi as a background service.  If another addon removes the Kodi database entries they are automatically added back.  Kodi 18 and Kodi 19 versions are available.
