Problem

We currently use a DataFile model to help handle uploading data for import into Mathesar. However,

  • The model isn't used after the import succeeds
  • It's overly complicated
  • It's risky to keep users data on the service beyond its usefulness

Proposed solution

We should revamp the import process so that the DataFile model isn't needed, and then remove it.
