    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      If you import an XML workflow that came from another instance, without making sure that all the issue status existed in the new instance, there will be probems:
      http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRAKB/NullPointerException+after+importing+workflow+XML
      It would be better if the import function would warn with an error message saying that the XML import was referencing unexisting objects.
