So far, it is loaded the same way as a 3D model.

Great idea, I also find referencing external files annoying.

Thanks Thomasz,

I like the external files for the 3D models. Otherwise the kicd_pcb file could grow dramatically.

On the contrary, the kicad_wks file is prone to be forgotten when sending the files. And the same wish for eeschema new v6 format.
