After thinking about it, I think there is a difficult point here. The fact that the entity engine is really permissive is a good point I think, so that each applications can choose which data is mandatory or not depending on its business.
The import tool should be compliant with the entity engine, so that it lets you import data as for the previous rule. Now, the problem is if you want to import data that is compliant with the provided services and interfaces. Here is the problem because we don't know which data is mandatory from the provided code point of view. I don't have any solutions for this last point, but it's something on which you should thought. Maybe add an option in the import tool to tell if you want to validate your data for the provided services and interfaces (but this means you will also need to add a way to tell which data is mandatory or not).
