Hi Allan,
Don't broaden the options that much, or at the very least, make the
most common use case the easier to follow, and stow away the options
for more uncommon usecases. Also, in this case finish is not "import
the file" which is already done, but "save settings for next time".
That should be clarified to the user.

Regarding disable the main app, I agree it would be nice to have it
enabled if you can use it to check the import. That looks really
useful to me.

I haven't really tried it, so it's just an outside view, and you can
ignore my comments.

Regards,
Alvaro
