I found it very hard to manage with the current product import process. The template file is broken down into several different sections such as [PRODUCTS], [DETAILED_IMAGES], [PRODUCT_OPTIONS], [PRODUCT_VARIANTS] and then so on...

Why can't we just use as many columns headers as needed inteads? With the current import template layout right now, you can not cut & paste or move a column around because that same column would impact other sections inside that same file.

For example, column "D" is used for !WEIGHT in the [PRODUCTS] section. But this same "D" column is also being used for !CLASSID in [PRODUCT_OPTIONS] section and !IMAGE in the [DETAILED_IMAGES] section. Each time you to need to move a column around, you need to find out where starts and ends in each section. That is a nightmare when your import file contains several thousand of lines.

Our main goal at this stage is to ensure the stability of the system, but not to add new features and make significant improvements that are most likely to involve new bugs and errors.

This is a good question. Hopefully X-Cart will respond. The current 4.2.x script is not good and has made it impossible for me to use this script unless I pay for modifications. I would rather revert back to the old import functions of older versions. This is more important than any other feature to us and has caused us to reconsider using other scripts.
