I am afraid it is not technically possible. There is no notion of wizard
chaining in Eclipse and even changing the Finish button to something
else will probably require some dirty hacks.

That's right. Currently the option is only available in the History view.

This is a valid point.
Currently the wizard looks and works exactly the same as the import
wizard in Egit - see the attached screenshot.
The only difference is that Egit allows you to select which existing
projects should be imported (it is on my todo list)
However, Subclipse for instance handles the import differently - see
screenshots.
I agree we may try to make the UI more intuitive.


Cheers,
