That's quite a delay IMHO. Imagine how slow the import dialogue would
be if future importers have the same delay for CanImport?

Anyway, we are going to revamp the import dialogue so that the import
options are included in it rather than in a newly opened dialogue. See
BGO 559013 [1]

Regardless of this, on-demand auto-discovery of the iTunes library
would make a great feature, feel free to file a bug for it.
