Hmm, I never encountered that issue except the one before the last official version, version 3.0 I think.
For me, the biggest weakness was/is the batching. You are limited to the predefined fields. There is no way to batch with any other fields you added via templates or even to the admin defined ones (unless you hack / edit the batch process routines).
You are limited to these: url, title, description
If your import has a url, title, description, model name, thumbURl, and tags, you basically have to batch and then go back and either manually edit each gallery, or, what I do, is dump the galleries database to get the id's, and then create a a database import file with the extra fields matching the gallery ID. It's a pain in the ass to to do detailed batching. Beyond that, I think it's great.
That said, would love to see someone create a script around Arylia as the foundation it has is pretty damn nice.
