Unfortunately pinning the root of a website may take time and the current interface does not account for that.

This interface was created before we've moved imports to MFS, and its refresh is long time due. FYSA we are redesigning this interaction in #888 – let's keep this issue open until that lands.

@FTOH for now, a workaround is to Copy CID and then use WebUI → Files → Import → From IPFS to keep the snapshot around (everything in Files is protected against garbage collection)
