After importing an Eagle project [1], we are prompted to annotate the schematic. Then, updating into pcbnew, we seem to get all of the footprints but duplicated as if they were just freshly placed on the board.
I think the annotation step should not be presented to user (if it is required to fix Eagle annotations) and we definitely shouldn't be getting multiple copies of the footprints.

@Jon- This started happening with the updated connectivity algorithm but I can't make heads or tails of why. Is it something you can look into?
