I am missing the most obvious limitation of this feature in the summary
of the feature.

This feature is limited to mode of collapsing the imported VM images
AFAIR, if you import a VM based on a template, for each import, a
collapsed image is created in the setup (It is like importing the
template with each VM you have based on this template).

I think this limitation makes the feature unworthy, we should be able to
support changing the ID's and importing only the needed storage layer.
