Description

I just experienced the following: I tried to use the import feature for an XML of a file instead of importing a XAR. The UI didn't provide any information about what I was doing was wrong, I got my file uploaded and the spinning wheel to display the import option. However I got a big scary stacktrace in the console:

Select the XML of an XWiki page to import
Click on the uploaded XML to display the import options

at a point the UI should display that the uploaded file is not of the expected format

Obtained result:
