So, I guess this bug should be summed up as:

Setting the import directory to a path that already contains photos may
fail silently, with Shotwell setting it back either to ~/Pictures or to
(None).

Note that this happened to me after I deleted ~/.shotwell. My (very
uneducated) guess is that the program may need to keep the files in the
import directory in sync with the data in ~/.shotwell, ignoring the
import-dir setting if that's not possible.
