How would I go about getting support for importing ads?

I tried starting the process but I see the only relevant fields to map the imported ads to are:
- Authored By
- Taxonomy: Ad Group
- Title
- Upload: File Attachments

I envisioned FTP uploading all the image ads and then creating a CSV file that had the path to all the ads (for the Upload: File Attachments field) but I suppose I'd also need fields to import the following data into:
- Destination URL
- Mouseover

...and hopefully be able to set their status to 'active' right off the bat!

Can anyone assist with this?

Should this feature request be in the 'node import' module queue or the 'advertisement' module queue?

Just for 'kicks', I thought I would try importing what I could and then worry about editing the other fields i felt were necessary...

I imported a CSV file with the user name, the title and the path to the image. I did upload the images first (over FTP) and confirmed that the path was readable.

When i went to import the ads, on the Preview step, it gave this error:

Can not import this node. Check following errors:
    * File attachment http://www.goflyxc.com/files/ads/head/mwadeco.jpg not found. You need to upload it to files first.

If you follow that path, you will see the image...so I know it IS there. I tried going ahead with the import anyways and it imported ZERO the ads (same error).

I was hoping to at least get the ads imported and viewable...they still wouldn't have the click-thru target but at least I could get view stats (I had hoped anyways...).
