I have being working on various import tools so I will look to see if I can do this. By the way its already possible to hack the import process without plugins needed.
In the mean time there is an easy work around. Go to your source wiki and advanced search filter tab to build filter the tiddlers you want to transfer to a json file.
E.g. [!is[system]]
Go to your empty html and import the json.

Tony

Thanks Tony, yes, I knew there was something on the export side of things. And I have done that once or twice.But for a new user, that 'simple' workaround means1) knowing that the option exists2) knowing how to get to advanced search and that you need to go to the filter tab3) going there4) knowing what filter to put in the box5) doing that6) knowing what option to choose in the export popup, and doing that7) not feeling intimidated by seeing the word 'json', which to some might sound scarier than Jason from Friday the 13th8) figuring out where to store the file on their computer9) going back into another TiddlyWiki file10) importing the json file.The process I am suggesting would reduce this to1. clicking a checkbox.2. import the tiddlersThanks for being willing to investigate this. Blessings.

This is something that has bothered me for years. I am just going to say it now that we have a lot of newcomers that would benefit from this tiny improvement.I think the import tiddler should have two more checkboxes: Check/uncheck system tiddlers, and check/uncheck regular tiddlers.
I have working, tested code sitting around to make a pull request to add renaming to the import process. If Tony or someone else doesn't get around to it before I do that, I can take a look at this as well. It's a pragmatic request. I would want to be able to easily toggle shadow tiddlers as well.(On a different note I really want to revamp that entire Import UI..... well, not just the UI but the entire import process).
