Description
If you try to import a CSV file like this and map the date field:
Summary,Desc,Date Created,Reporter,,, Test issue, Test issue desc, 21/01/1999 12:00:00, admin, , ,
You'll get a stacktrace when navigating to Step 4 of 5 of the import wizard:

Also, on this step, the user should be prompted for the DateFormat, but it doesn't show up (see screenshot). This is because somehow the ,,, gets parsed as an array, and the getDateFields() method tries to cast entries to a String. Our importer code should handle this better, by either reporting an error or by mapping the empty header row fields correctly.
