New mode for Import reporters to reporterlist - Add existing without risk of updating or creating
When importing reporters to a reporterlist from file (using Reporter importer plugin) a new mode would be useful. Existing modes are Create, Update, Delete. A user-case involve adding reporters from file without the intent or wish to either create, update, nor delete. A user may want to simply add existing reporters to the reporterlist. This new mode is useful for regular users (without privileges to create or edit existing reporters) and for admin users that want to verify the existence of reporters in a file.

I have been working in this and the code becomes a bit messy. To make things simpler I think that when the importer is used in a reporter list context, it should only add/remove to/from the list. It should not create new reporters or update existing reporters. This will make the code clearer and I think also make it easier for user to use the plug-in.
