I observe the same behaviour in two of my installations.

On Debian sid I have

MythTV Version: 9d871a9
MythTV Branch: fixes/0.27

and on Debian jessie

MythTV Version : v0.27.3

from

Package: mythtv-backend
Version: 0.27.3+fixes20140825-dmo2

I also noticed this option.

Unfortunately it is not channel.conf which is imported, but - if I  
understand correctly - the results of earlier scans done by MythTV.

It can be done directly and easily (?) in mysql, it is just necessary  
to know which fields in which tables are to be filled.

There is also an option of adding a channel on the Channel Editor  
screen, but it seems very limited and inappropriate for the problem.
