You are correct!

This was a sponsored development and the spec was decided upon my the sponsor.
I think as a general rule, if a library wants to manually import invoices from
one vendor, they want to manually import invoices from *all* vendors. This
change would be out of scope for the development.

That being said, I think it would make a fine future enhancement. The syspref
value could be imported into a new column in the vendors table and then removed
from the database.
