"Import All Geometry" option for importing all geometry file types
I use both Houdini and Blender, and importing geometry files is much easier in Houdini even though the UI is a pain to work with because, you have an option to import all geometry file types in one option. Many times, I have gone to import a certain file and upon a (very unproductive) search, suddenly realized that I was searching for the wrong file type (say, an FBX file instead of an OBJ or something like that.) My suggestion is to add an option to import all types of geometry at once (no need to import things that aren't geometry like VDBs and so on.) This will definitely cut down on time!

Its planned to have a drag and drop import for models or fbx/ obj files. Does that help? Currently nobody is working on it but they said its for new developers so might be not that hard to do.
* @SilaS * I think I've read somewhere there will be a rework to the Import system so that you have only one Import button that would automatically detect the file format and show it's associated settings.
* @-L0Lock- * That would be great!
I logged in to support this idea. This exact example with the obj and fbx files happen to me on a daily basis. Upvote!!... and a simple drag n drop feature for the viewport...=?
