      Description

      During an import of individuals (and their employer info), I got various accurate but inappropriate errors:
      Missing required fields: First Name OR Email Address
      Missing required fields: Last Name OR Email Address
      Missing required fields: First Name and Last Name OR Email Address

      The code in CRM/Contact/Import/Form/Parser/Contact.php should not be stricter than the dupe rules set up through the browser. Ideally, those rules should be used rather than inflexible code.
