Where is the option to import private keys? I saw various pages mentioning that it is located in the wallet properties page but I can't seem to find it.
Also, is there a way to import a public key as a "Watch only" type of address?

You have to create a wallet first, and then select the wallet into which you want to import the keys. From the wallet properties, there's an option on the bottom right for importing private keys.
Unfortunately, there is no way to import public keys into a watch-only wallet. There's a couple reasons for this, and not all of them are laziness
I finally am in the process of switching to armory!
A few questions..
a) I guess no news about "importing" an address when only the public address is known? I imagine this should be possible, as we have the blockchain with all transactions of this address?
edit: It doesn't have to be a watch-only-wallet. Would it be more possible to have a whole new type of "wallet" for this?
b) Imported addresses: The paper backup warns that imported addresses are not included in the paper backup. Are they included in the digital backup / wallet file?
c) and OT: I wish to have bitcoind always running in background. Does anyone know a way to "connect" bitcoin-qt to the running bitcoind, instead of armory, when armory is closed? I would like that option, as I have a lot of wallets from bitcoin-qt left, and start all fresh on armory. And yes, that's nothing I expect the programmer of armory to code ;-)
Thank you for this nice client! I already love it, never restarting the client again to switch wallets! :-)
Also, what is currently the limiting factor in armory's development? Time, funds, tasks, coders?
