- Add support for appending CSV data to an existing table: https://community.kde.org/Kexi/Migration/CSV/Add_support_for_appending_CSV_data_to_an_existing_table
- Add skipEmptyColumns, skipEmptyRows
- Add options to parse booleans (default: 0, false, no, "false", "no" -> false; 1, true, yes, "true", "yes" -> true)
- Add options to specify accepted false/true boolean values
- Add option to specify if missing boolean value should be treat as true or false ( import-globally, also depends on 'required' property)
- (partially developed) Add option to skip comment lines (off by default, if enabled, whitespace is allowed before the character)
- Add option to specify comment character (# by default)
- Add options to specify date, time, date-time formats (reg exp, mask?)
- Add option to specify escape character
- Add option to specify if multiline text values are allowed (true by default), if allowed, \n or \r\n can occur inside of text value
- Add option to specify 'required' property for given column (true, false, default)
- Add import-global option to specify 'required' property for columns
- Add option to define behaviour on malformed CSV (unclosed quote, extra quote, missing values) - either stop with error or show warning only
- Move options from the main dialog to configuration
- Fix it: default extension is txt first, then csv...
Add number settings (see also KDE locale tab):
- Digit grouping (default from locale, can be space/,/./)
- Decimal separator (default from locale, can be space/,/./)
- Positive sign (default from locale, propose +)
- Negative sign (default from locale, propose -)
- Digit set (default from locale)
