feedback for partial imports

[christianhanvey]

Add some feedback to improve the user experience...
When an import partially works, it would be nice to have some feedback on the resources that were imported. For example, when you get a message like:
'XXX' could not be imported because a resource with alias 'XXX' already exists
its not immediately clear that some resources were imported, and some were not.
I think it would be good to provide feedback here on which lines of the import were done, (or which were not - which is probably what the user cares more about).

If an import fails it'll stop processing and dump info from the core on screen...if you encountered situation where it didnt thats a bug and will need more info on what failed.

I've pasted the contents from the console log file below.
I'm attempting to importing some resources I've already imported (because I know that will trigger the same error).
It fails on the first item (because of duplicate alias) and stops.
Is this what you are expecting?

So my original point was that the error message could be improved by telling the user which line to continue the import from.

Second this request.
During an import i got the same issue of duplicate aliases. The error message also stated that 20 out of 171 records were imported by didn't say which ones. This is extremely unhelpful. It should list the details of the imported records so they can be removed from the next import after the aliases are fixed.
