ok so if I understand you correctly, you want this in the wizard but not
in the 'add hd' panel ? And you want to have a (probably simplified) hd
add panel from the import storage content panel directly ?

sounds fine to me, an alternative I could offer would be to
have a separate input panel only for importing, and show in the wizard
another button (e.g. split button on add) that adds that import panel
and for the guests a new entry in the 'add menu' that says 'import'

(this panel could then also be added to the import storage content,
with an additional vm selector)
