Default settings for importing datasets

Jessica__

So, I literally never want my integers coerced to doubles, and it would be great to have the option to have the "Normalize floats & doubles" box default to unchecked when I'm creating a new dataset. Maybe on a per-project basis? Maybe a Datasets section in the Project Settings?

Similarly, I basically always want my dates to be imported as strings, and then I can parse them later. Would be lovely to have an option to set a default for that, too.

What would actually be ideal is if there was a way - even if it couldn't be set as a default - to tell Dataiku not to try to auto-detect meanings on Dataset creation at all. It's often finding some number of integer-like entries in a foreign key column that actually do need to be text because some of them do have alpha characters in them, and it's often guessing that things are genders, or countries, that are nothing like that.

Thanks!
