Description
Since multigroup is not yet supported in node import (and only exists in cck's -dev branch), I decided to model my fields ungrouped with an unlimited number of values.
I am trying to import multiple values for a field where some of the values are blank. Is this even possible? Often the values do not even parse.
For example, on a multi-value string field, I am trying to import "||||A" where the divider token is "||" and I want to import ,,"A".

I'm interested in this as well.
If you import multiple value fields that are part of a multigroup, will the values of each field match up so long as you separate multiple values in a consistent fashion?
In other words, if you have three fields in a multigroup, and the goal is to have values like this:
A B C
1 2 3
X Y Z
if you import the first field as "A||1||X", the second as "B||2||Y" and the third as "C||3||Z", will they align properly after the import?

I have been trying to import data into some multigroup fields, and it seems like it all goes fine until the import finishes and I go check the results and see only the first set of values got imported. I'm not sure if this is because it's a multigroup, or if it's a larger issue with importing into multi-value text fields...
