Using private keys in parallel in multiple wallets is discouraged by Bitcoin in
general and an unsupported usecase in Bitcoin Wallet.

There is a use case where for instance I use a wallet (e.g. bitcoin-qt) and
then decide to switch to another wallet (e.g. bitcoin-wallet) because I do not
like the first one or my computer broke down or whatever. This is where I
expect that my previously spent bitcoins are listed in the appropriate list,
and this use case does not include using private keys in parallel in multiple
wallets. And as bitcoin-wallet includes the possibility to import private keys
this use case is feasible.

Key import/export is not possible any more. Backups always span the entire
wallet and restoring replaces the current wallet.
