Comment (by mmetz):

 Replying to [comment:2 pcav]:
 > I think most users would expect a different behaviour from this command,
 importing all the shp in a folder as different GRASS vectors. It would be
 good to make this unexpected behaviour clear from the description of the
 command (also in the QGIS plugin)

 Right, the manual was not clear, I updated the description in grass64,
 develbranch and trunk (r39972, r39973, r39974 respectively).

 Importing all shapefiles in a folder as different grass vectors can be
 done in the wxGUI with

 File -> Import vector map -> Multiple vector data import using OGR
