Detect animation strip when importing sprites and offer to convert automatically
Not sure how that should work? How can an animation strip be identified?
If I upload an image 320x320. It could be just that, one image. It could be 10x10 frames 32x32 pixels, it could be 10x5 (32x64), etc. Maybe a better option would be to extend the 'split to animation' button? Leave on screen permanently and on click open a little menu that asks for the columns/rows count? Just a thought :) Or would a similar window pop up on import?

Or add an identifier to the file name? Mysheet_32x64.png , along those lines?

No idea if it could be automated (including the size in the filename might do), but I think this could simply be done on request from the user. I mean, at the click of a button.
If the image is a grid of frames all of the same width and height, and each row is a full animation, then it might be enough to simply have a place where to fill out the number of frames the image contains horizontally and vertically, and a button to trigger the split.
Could even just be a button on the toolbar, which when clicked triggers a popup asking about the frame numbers, and then you click ok to get it done.
