I'm not sure about the reasons for requiring review for the CVS imports, but at least for the Subversion servers it's to prevent people from accidentally registering an import of the repository root, causing a lot of disk usage and processing time on Launchpad's side. Copies are cheap in Subversion (E.g. creating a new tag) but, unless they're branch copies, they're expensive in Bazaar.
The heuristics code in bzr-svn could be used to automatically approve Subversion branches that appear legitimate (I've only seen a few situations where it didn't gets the repository layout right). > I've been working on exposing code imports over the API, including > creation, and should have this done this release.
