Fortunately, I haven't experienced the problem you described yet
and I don't know why that happens. 

Have you checked http://bugs.kde.org/?  Have you reported the problem
if it's not already there?  Data loss is a very severe issue and 
I think the developers would *very* much like to know about it. 

But as a workaround: 
Why don't you backup the original addressbook instead of the 
.csv exports?   That would save you the re-import...  
Myself, I'm even keeping that data on a CVS server, 
but that's only me.
