Hi

Is it possible to have to have the Excel product import suggest a url based on the name, similar to when saving a variant without a url in the backoffice?

Litium version: 8.6.1

My guess is that you should create validator that updates the url

```auto
public class BaseProductValidator : ValidationRuleBase<BaseProduct>{

public override ValidationResult Validate(Variant entity, ValidationMode validationMode)
        {
// update the entity url
}
}

```
