This has been addressed (and I dare to say solved) already, multiple 
ways:

- there is a program xgsch2pcb that provides a gui for "automating" this; 
this software acts as a suite manager to coordinate editing the same 
design in gschem and pcb without doing any of the things you listed above

- "recent" versions of pcb support direct import of schematics from the 
menu - single click, fully integrated into the GUI, no need to do any of 
the manual steps. I used quote around recent because this feature has been 
around for years.

HTH,
