Plan/Document Properties Should Mirror Template When Imported

I recently recreated a bunch of plans in a client's instance via import. I expected that the plans would copy properties fields, e.g., footer text, from the template the plans were based on. This did not happen and Support told me it's because if you are creating a plan via import, it does not look at the template for properties fields. That does not make sense to me and I'd suggest we modify functionality so that if you create a plan based on a template, it brings in all aspects of the template that you'd expect whether you are creating it via import or not.
