P: Set default 'include subfolders' when importing images from a camera CF card

This option never 'takes' or 'stays' for the next import and I don't see anything related in preferences. I think I can only ask if there is a way or if there will be a way in the future. Now, with the new mirrorless cameras and hefty megapixels and large file sizes, the CF cards are a boon to handling these images for capture and then to upload to Lightroom folders. Would love to not have to remember to 'include sub-folders' as nothing will show from the inserted card until that box is found and checked when importing into Lightroom...

Canon adds different folders for pictures and movies on the cards. Thus it's very annoying that we have to check "include subfolders" every time again. This is a no-brainer, so please Adobe, add it to the next release that this setting is persistent. Thanks.
