anxiousmodernman/smartsurvey — Issue #1: QP .csv exports do not include question text for 'more interested'/'less interested' answer types.

The issue is that the data we get from a direct .csv export *does not contain the question text* of questions where the answers are structured as a list of choices and sentiment is measured on each of those choices. For instance, there is no question text in the dataset for _What issues and biotechnology sectors are you and your company most interested in?_. Instead we get the answers parsed as columns:

23. COLUMN: Health care
24. COLUMN: Policy and regulation
25. COLUMN: Company and financial news
26. COLUMN: Industry deals
27. COLUMN: International news

This is fine for number crunching, since the values for each of these attributes is some number that corresponds to an interest level. But the question text is lost, and we'll need to recover it somehow.
