Adding Members with comma separated list

Description

Sometimes you get a list of members that you need to add to your group or to your project. That list can easily be manipulated to make it comma (or space) separated, but when you copy that to Add members field, it just reports no matches found. The Import members works from other projects, but if you get members from some other tool, it takes you some time to add them as you need to type each of them separately. However once all users are there you can assign all of them same role and just click Send, so I assume that in background you already work with certain list.

Proposal

I propose that you can paste a comma separated list for adding members. Member usernames should not have commas in there anyway, so this will provide a nice separation. A tab separation is also an option (if someone has comma in their name, for sure they do not have a tab).
