Poking around, if it's an option, I can't find it.. how do you import an existing mnemonic wallet?

There is not currently that functionality.

The problem is mnemonics are generally not encrypted (and encrypted mnemonics have their own family of problems).

I recommend in general using an encrypted wallet. However, since a lot of people using this tool likely come from Metamask, I should probably add that feature. I will put it on my short list. The breeding methods are almost done, so I will get to this after those.
