FS#19 - Bulk import from filesystem

This one is a doozey, due to the security implications in a multiuser/shared environment. We may want to make the 'filesystem bulk import' path per-user or something like that, but it has to be readable by the webserver user.

Additional comments about closing:  I'm closing this for now, I can't come up with any remotely-secure way of handling this, while still allowing users to specify their own upload paths.

The current implementation (in -devel) pops up a text box and expects the user to enter path. This is a glaring security hole, as any file readable by the webserver could potentially be imported.

Still, I'm inclined to port this to -stable, defaulting it to disabled, as the code that enables this is pretty simple.

It's backported to -stable now, defaulting to DISABLED.

I think I may only enable it for admin-level users?
