Allow overwriting existing files with downloads (1.21 KB, patch)

Description Michael Catanzaro 2014-09-25 03:08:53 UTC 
Allow overwriting existing files when downloading a file with a context menu entry that opens the file chooser, since we already prompt the user to decide whether an existing file should be overwritten.

Allow overwriting existing files with downloads

When using e.g. Save Image As, if the user tries to save a download over
an existing file we prompt him to confirm that he wishes to delete the
original file. Then the download fails. Actually delete the original
file instead.

We might consider adding a ephy_download_set_allow_overwrite() but since it's only used here, I think it's fine to get the wk download.
