This is absolutely needed and should be a priority for developers.
Even more important with the non-marketing/marketing contacts plan. We need a way to have users submit approval before importing or exporting lists. Without this check, someone can easily push a large list, add to marketing contacts and accidently push us over our allotment.
Beyond that this is a major security factor. Considering approvals are already in place for email and website publishing, i don’t see any reason why this wouldn’t be far off from implementing across other assets.
