      Description

      When using mongoimport or mongoexport, it would be nice to allow specifying an option to be able to handle custom field separator.

      I was trying to import some data using mongoimport and realized that I had to pre-process the data to change the delimiters from colons to tabs (to make it tsv) before import.
