Format for adding student details in bulk #5302

When adding students to the course file, the Instructor Guide currently advises to paste a comma separated list into the text box. It would be great to process this data so that the user can provide a csv list of students including, say First Name, Second Name, Email Address etc. Maybe automatically recognise field structure, or else require its specification.

One can easily take an arbitrary CSV, read it using pandas, extract fields, create new fields, and eventually output something copy-pasteable into CoCalc. This is as flexible as can be without any complications to the interface.
