That's something I ultimately decided against because the only data you have is the CHD name, so if your CHD isn't named exactly like in the database of your choice, there is no way to retrieve the correct CUE. I could add a selector like I do for PS3 though, that's something to consider. Requiring the CUE at import time is the only surefire way to get it right without additional input from the user, and it allows for a different name from the database, as long as the CHD and CUE are named identically.
Another option would be to add an additional flag to the import command pointing to the correct CUE.

What about delay moving a CUE that doesn't have a matching CHD at import time?
EDIT: I had the issue of dumping all the Redump CUEs in my import directory and Oxyromon importing them but never using them without also importing with another CUE file in successive imports. It made me question why even import a CUE file without a CHD if we will not use it down-the-road?
It's possible people will later import regular BINs, or even at the same time, so importing CUEs alone is a valid use case.
When importing CHDs, you should not list the CUE in the command line, as it will automatically be picked up. In case either the CUE or CHD don't match, nothing is imported. They are imported only if both match.

Ahh, I forgot CUEs are useful for regular BINs. Thanks for reminding me!
I don't imagine it would hurt to check during import if a ROM name matches a possibly already imported CUE file. After all it can be so crucial to the CHD import procedure.
However, this isn't a biggie. I learned to keep CUE files with CHDs now, anyway.
This can be closed if you wish.
Yeah, I'll add that to the backlog, thanks.
It would be awesome if oxyromon would make use of already imported .cue files for CHD files imported after the CUE file.
