Currently creation of a new object via the Islandora GUI allows for upload of a MARCXML file. FSU is asking that it also allow upload of a MODS XML file, thus bypassing MODS creation via the form in cases where there is an existing MODS file already.
There have been a number of times that I've wanted the ability to create a new record, especially a test record, and there may be cases where a user has created MODS records via ExceltoMODS transformer and wants to load them one by one.
I don't believe that this is a high priority request.
