Should I add support to allow users to Import from Instagram to @pixelfed more than once?

On subsequent imports, existing imported files would be skipped.

@dansup @pixelfed Ship now, and allow for multiple imports later. I would make it abundantly clear though, that they should back up their existing data first, in case it goes wrong. When I played with instagram archive import I used a clean wordpress account, before taking the risk of ruining my existing blog.
Adding subsequent updates can be rolled out at a later date.
