Automatic adding names from files....

This is a pure detail: i think it's useful to add new records from a file directly adding name from the file; so i put "add name from files" in preferences.

But sometimes i have to read files hoping not to change that info (example: a 2CDs movie...).
I know what u'll think: "go to prefs and put automatition OFF"...

Isn't it possible to decide after the file reading if i want to add name too?
Isn't it possible to create a 2nd choice in preferences "ADD FROM FILE NAME IF TITLE FIELD IS BLANK ONLY"?

ah... who can i change this reading from OriginalTitle to TranslatedTitle (i'm not american, so often my files are with Translated Title)?

Thx

In the future I may improve the file import thing, but for the moment and for version 3.5 this will stay as it is currently ;)
