Follow-up to #2911291: Plan for Feeds 7.x-2.0-beta5 release

Issues of interest:

  1. Cron issues
    There are a lot of reports about imports that do not work during cron. To add more insight to the problem, a feature to see the next import time was added to 7.x-2.0-beta4. Perhaps this already fixes a part of the cron issues. We hope to fix a few other cron issues by running the imports during cron as either user 1 or the user who created the feed node.
    #2541944: Switch to feed author or user 1 during imports (taxonomy mapping does not work with cron)
    #1995728: [META] Cron import not working on 7.x-2.0-alpha8 and later
  2. Validation
    Feeds 7.x-2.0-beta4 has become stricter on validating imports to minimize SQL errors on imports. It also validates importers themselves. We want to extend validation by no longer allow attaching two importers to the same content type and by locking some settings when there is already imported data.
    #2474589: Changing processor wipes mappings with no warning
    #2640108: Display an error message when attaching an importer to a content type that is already in use by an other importer
  3. Aborted CSV import
    There is one big issue left related to imports that need multiple cron runs to complete: a source to import from is stored as a temporary file, which is removed after 6 hours. If the import hasn't been completed by then, the import will be aborted and the importer will be stuck in a locked state.
