Why can't I do a CSV Import at the Project level ?

[Michael Green]

This question is in reference to Atlassian Documentation: Importing Data from CSV

Why do I have to have System Administrator access at the JIRA instance level to import issues from Excel/CSV ?  Why isn't there a feature to allow the administrator on a Project to do a CSV import ?

The delegated administration is a very hot topic for JIRA, unfortunately there isn't granular control over that.
