grouping cameras and objects to move together

Hi, I've previously created a qtvr in Maxwell with 8 cameras looking at 8 nodes, this worked well.
How can I group them all together (both cameras and their nodes) and move them to a new location as one, within my scene to set up the next shot?

1) Remove all objects from the scene
2) Remove all materials from the scene
3) Save scene (eg. cameras.mxs)
4) Open the other scene
5) File / Import... cameras.mxs

Hi Tom,
This imports the cameras fine, but doesn't allow me to move them together in relation to each other. Is there a way of grouping several to a Null like we can with objects?

Yes, currently this is not possible in Studio workflow but now adding to wishlist.
