Import mdl > Normalize Bones: Root/Pelvis bone locked translation

[Irmitya]

When you import a model using Normalize, there is a potential for a weird thing in Blender.

What happens is no matter what you do, a bone's location can't change (moving/constraints/drivers/etc), and the solution isn't obvious

In order to fix it, you have to go into edit mode, then Alt+P > Clear Parent, to disable the Connected property of the bone.

When a bone has the use_connected property, it locks it to it's parent. Thing is, if the bone doesn't have a parent, it locks to nothing.
I would think Blender would notice it doesn't have a parent and move on but that's not the case.

This is the model I found this on:

note: I was specifically using version 1.5 from Sept, 24, 2018. (https://sfmlab.com/item/3113/changelog)
It doesn't happen on the latest version of the model.

Should be fixed in latest commit on dmx-import branch
