Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)

right now, the code import feature doesn't support providing a code base directory and importing all the wildcard matches recursively.  For larger projects this means that you have to go to each directory individually, select the files in that directory, then go to one of the other directories in the tree and do it again, etc, in order to import the whole class hierarchy.

Better would be if you could specify a directory and umbrello would automatically grab all the wildcard matches and import them.

An applaudable wish indeed - alas, we have too few Magic Fairies.
Please consider contributing.

As a workaround, you can export the environment variable
UMBRELLO_INCPATH to contain a colon separated list of directories:

 export UMBRELLO_INCPATH="first_codeimport_dir:second_dir:third"

and start umbrello from the command line.

A good wish, according to me.
But I think it should be an option.
Sometimes, you don't want to go recursively
