re: Please do not tell me, this is the usual way! :)

No, not at all. My guess you ran into a bug introduced in WP 4.7.2.

I suspect you would not be able to upload the .csv file without first renaming it to .txt into the WP Media Library either, being rejected as an unsecure file type.

I worked around this bug in the CSV Import addon. I may have to do the same for the Import Categories tool as well.

Apologies for the trouble!
