New Import: Partial

Created on 24 January 2022, about 4 years ago

Problem/Motivation

Currently there are 3 import modes:

Safe - adds missing items, NO UPDATE.
Full - imports items, deleting ones not in config.
Force - imports, deleting all, whether in config or not.

An additional mode would be nice:

Update: adds missing items, updates existing items.

Adding an additional button makes the web gui cluttered, so also perhaps revamp the interface to one import button with option radios:

() Update Existing Items    (*) Do NOT Update Existing Items 

(*) Do not Delete Items   () Delete items NOT in config before importing  () Delete items in config before importing  () Delete ALL items before importing

I am also interested in this feature. If I am missing that the module can already accomplish this, please let me know.

Actually, its not really necessary for me given that the import appears to skip items that are not being updated.
