Description

When the certificate manager was first created, the most common user action was to import and not create. We are long past the days when that was true. Users going to the CA/Cert manager most likely want to create internal entries and not import. It's time to change the default action when a new instance is created.

The user can still import with one extra click to change the Method to "Import an existing ...".
