Bug Description

When using the QIF import assistant there is an issue when trying to import more than one file at once.
Usually the procedure is selecting one file and when you return back to the start screen you can click the "Load another file" Buton. It is supposed to bring you to a file chooser, but for some reason the seleced value for the file from the chooser is not reset and it always starts saying that File (Filename1) has already been added to the list and you should choose another different. This error message is confusing, anoying and not at the right time because at this point i didn't have a choice to select a new file yet, insead it should only check for the duplicate AFTER selecting file 2

I suppose this is going to be an upstream bug but would appreciate if any of the package mainainers could escalate this to the respective bug tracker.

The bug is not blocking the usage of the program, but would result in a nice useability improvement and is likely going to be a very easy fix.
