It's not currently possible to import fields that allow multiple selection. <document>.setItem requires a list, but always gets a string in importCsv It looks like the form's processInput may be a more appropriate API to call, otherwise other fields will also give problems. If you want to post-process imports, you'd have to run an agent for all numbers, date-times .. all non-string fields .. which makes import from CSV less useful than it need be. The incoming data looks a lot like the data you get from form submission. Isn't it possible to treat it the same and get more useful CSV import?

yes good idea, and that's probably quite easy to do I think
