It pays to note that as well as Amazon and the LoC, you can choose from around 50 worldwide libraries (LT uses free Z39.50 connections from these Libraries to search data) to search from and find works to add to your collection.
As for importing from Delicious Library - the site has a "Universal Import" on the "Joy" tab - this will accept practically any kind of file format or even copy/pasted links. It scans through the file and pulls out the ISBN's which it then places into a queue and queries them against the sources of your choice. Depending on how many other people have ISBN's in the queue will affect how long your import will take, as they have to limit the number of queries they push onto sites like Amazon and the Libraries.
If you have any questions, feature requests or bug reports - see the discussion groups under the "Groups" tab, there's a heading entitled "Standing Groups", which are all the site-related groups.

But maybe one day we'll see such a feature - the site is still young, but backed by ABEbooks and an enthusiastic and growing team. The thing I like is LT may not be extremely "Web 2.0 pretty" but it is heavy on data, I find similar sites too focussed on good looks rather than features and quality/quantity of data.

Glad to see you folks are thinking ahead and realizing that once I as a user gets all my book data into in your site, I might want to get it back out someday.
