Summary: Remove Import CAD and only have Link CAD. Importing CAD can cause problems in models and its easier for CAD files to get exploded creating a mess of text, line and hatch pattern types.
Description: Remove "Import CAD" from the ribbon and have this as a feature under "Link CAD". After a CAD file has been linked it can then be "bound" or imported if its necessary. With the two options under the Insert tab of the ribbon its hard to get Revit users to consistently Link it instead of Import. When CAD files get imported it can be hard to find and purge out of the model.
