What happens on import depends largely on the input file.  For instance, 
with a QIF file, it would then depend on the source of the file.  If it 
was produced by another personal finance program of yours, then it is 
possible that the file could include a transfer to another known local 
account.  A file from say a bank will not have any notion of the local 
account structure, and likely will contain only deposits or withdrawals.

OFX and CSV files generally are not produced by personal finance 
programs, so they too would contain only deposits or withdrawals.  The 
CSV import plugin can now handle categories, but up to now there has not 
been a requirement for transfers.

In the main, then, with imports other than QIF, the transactions are 
likely to be flagged as missing an assignment.
