I have been thinking about it for some time now and before I send a formal feature request

I wanted to pass this through you to check if I was missing something here.

does it seem to you also that AE's import dialog box on a layered Photoshop/illustrator

should contain a field in which you could specify the duration and frame rate

for a layered Psd or Ai file before AE actually made a composition?

too often I get fooled by that one. and of course the problem depends 

on how many pre-comps are there, but the frame rate can also fool you

if you change them occasionally.

If I was aware before hand, what I do is create a blank composition, with

the proper duration and frame rate - and then I import the file. but too often

I've already started and now I see got tons of pre-comps to extend. 

(I can also re import after making blank composition but its cumbersome)

what do you guys think?

am I right or am I right?
