    API Changes

    Import API
    • ➕ Added a new ImportException base class for known, user-facing import failures, along with an EmptyFileException subclass. Empty files are now detected centrally in ImportController and raised as EmptyFileException with a localized message, so UIs can present a clean error instead of the default unexpected-exception treatment.
