"Import Articles" ignores "Articles URL Format"

Hi there,

When we change the "Articles URL Format:" configuration prior to import, e.g. to /YYYY/ the "Import Articles" feature seems to ignore the config setting and imports are assigned a standard URL in the format /YYYY/MM/DD

The config change regarding permalink thus seems only to relate to new articles, but doesn’t apply to new imports.

This is a pain, as we have several blogs organised into folders, named by year, or with no string at all.

Can anyone suggest a workaround or how to alter the import feature itself?
