I also import (open) CSV files with different structures. I use tab
delimited files where the data may contain commas (i.e. addresses).

There's no need to switch to tab delimited. Just quote each field using double-quotes. If you need a double-quote character, use two double-quotes. e.g.:
"Column 1", "Field, with comma", "Field ""with quotes""", "Column 4"
