Is there a way to import a large-ish number of options for dropdowns?
No, you’d have to write something like that yourself in Ruby or Javascript. How many are you adding?
We were hoping to do the same thing with a “Country” field to get some normalized data and eventually a way to group people geographically, perhaps by badges.

Country might be better served by a new field type. I can actually imagine many people would want such a thing.

Settings:
User preferences:
Profile:
