If a site like Facebook, in the notional future, had such an import tool and I thought it would respect my privacy medium term, I'd do it in a heartbeat.
But Facebook, as a specific business, has demonstrated a worse approach to user privacy and preferences than LJs current senior management.
Ergo I wouldn't do it.
However, given I was backing up to WP from about 2005 onwards, and wrote a how-to for people to do so during one of LJs many "the site may die tomorrow" events, I've always assumed that something I wrote on someone else's journal was given to their control. If they move it elsewhere, that's them doing it.
Ergo, I have no problem with it happening. If they want to trust Facebook, that's their choice, it's their journal.
