"BTW, the OP is probably just a troll, he said to be moving from Lr but Lr does exactly the same with the same naming IIRC (Import folder)."

Well, yes, I can agree with the first  claim in this sentence *ONLY* if you know me personally, have seen how much work I am investing in this desire and planning to move from Lr to something better and are willing to be much more precise on what you mean by 'probably' (which has a value anywhere between something infinitely close to zero and infinitely close to one) - else I think I am justified in feeling aggrieved by your comment.

Concerning the second claim in your sentence, I  do not know what you mean by 'the same naming',  but will observe that I have not had, and do not find, any issues with import function in Lr, for my use case. I have been using Lr for 14 years. My main reason for wanting to move away from it is the well documented issues with processing X-Trans .raf files in Lr6 (subsequency fixed in later versions I'm told, but I can not agree to Adobe's subscription model).

There; I feel better now.

Sure!

If I'm using a spreadsheet, and I import a CSV
file, I'm actually making a copy of it, not simply referring to it.  There are 
ways of creating a
reference, such that the spreadsheet is updated when the reference is, but 
they're not called
"import".
Because when you leave the spreadsheet application there is no more ref
to the spreadsheet. You need to open it again next time you start your
spreadsheet application. That's not how darktable works, there is a
database and next time you start dt the pictures are there. The import
is done once and only once and it is really an import.

BTW, the OP is probably just a troll, he said to be moving from Lr but
Lr does exactly the same with the same naming IIRC (Import folder).
