Feature request: Using files as address lists.

RouterOS General
1

Hello, I’ve encountered case with a very big address list (not so big as RKN Blacklist, but also not small), would be great just to create only 1 rule to 1 address-list: import from address-list.txt

Some kind of the implementation could be:
/ip firewall address-list export
add import-file=address-list.txt disabled=no list=List-Name

Also would be great for some multicore systems to have few threads/workers to check long ALs, something like CAM emulation.

You can do this via DNS. When you setup a DNS server somewhere that returns the address list as A records,
you can define a single DNS name as an address list and it will fetch the info from DNS and update it dynamically.
This appears to work quite well, even for long lists.

The checking of long address lists is quite efficient, they are not scanned sequentially but they are using a hashed list.
