Saving partial profile

Is there a way to only save partial profile settings? What I’d like to do is export/import only the settings for a specific feature. An obvious use would be to save only the settings for ‘supports’. I’d like to save these settings, then import them as required. Right now, I save these as a profile, with only the various support parameters modified. The problem with this is that they pretty much have to be loaded at the start of a project setup.
