That make sense, and I can even see this being applied to the Search  
results too.

I know that Chuck changed this by intention, because it allows to  
easily enter several time entries one after the other. And it sounds  
like this is a common scenario for your users too.

That doesn't make sense. CSV is to transport the complete data,  
unmodified. If you don't need all the data or need to transform or  
group it somehow, you import it to a spreadsheet and process it there.
