Unacceptable implementation of model importation. #289

This is unacceptable. There should be a notification or at least a tooltip as to what exactly the 'model import' function does.

I have a 1TB external SDD drive I use for model storage. My A1111 settings already point to these directories. I have over 200GB worth of checkpoint, LoRA and other models saved.

The 'import' function is copying the model files to the main harddrive. This is counter to the common teachings of good GUI design and interaction. This program should be able to have and utilize a list of existing model directors for access rather than silently copying files without warning.

My internal harddrive has only 500GB of space. Using only one subfolder to test functionality with, my main harddrive is now out of free space, and I had to use a utility to find what was taking up so much room.

Do not allow users to create massive file operations without any warning of the possibility of filling up the PC's primary drive.
