1. No need, during import select Amount or Amount(negated) as required
2. Account names can be updated in a spreadsheet with a lookup table

Intuitively exporting and importing transactions seems right but
synchronizing two sets of reversed transactions would be a nightmare. I
have an entity that provides a service to another entity. Instead of
transferring transactions I make a payment with high level itemisation
annually so the entity receiving the service doesn't get the minutia. My
accountant is satisfied it meets regulatory requirements and I have the
necessary information to manage the business.

Maybe the transactions are easily identifiable by your COA. They are not in
my case so I use (in GnuCash terminology) tags and filtered transaction
reports to identify them.
