Inspired by an exchange in `#mapbox`:

LuigiMontanez: How do I share tilemill projects with others?
ajashton: LuigiMontanez: if you create an archive of your project with the links resolved,
it will include all the data files. Example command: cd
~/Documents/MapBox/project && tar czhf your_project.tar.gz your_project

We could easily zip a project's folder for the user and on the Mac, even reveal it in the Finder for easy sharing. Or wrap it in a custom file extension (`.mbproj`) and allow for import/export.
