When trying to import in a project that was created on a different user account (where previous imports were performed in the other users home directory), the import dialog does not open. Stack trace below. Current user "doris" with home /Users/doris. Previous user "christoph" with home /Users/christoph.

I would have expected that a "default directory" is chosen instead of the inaccessible one.

This is valid for import and export, the path is stored within the .qgs file itself, instead of the QFieldSync local instance. I see the arguments in favor and against doing that, but for sure we should do something about this error at least.

I agree. Where to store the config is a project decision. None the less the exception should be caught gracefully.

There is another exception happening at the end of the import that should be taken care of as well:

Just as an addition, a similar error happens during import:
