When I copy am copying movies to my external hard disk I might pick a movie I have already copied.  If the selection I have made is 5GB and the second file already exists I would expect a prompt for overwrite but for the other file transfers to continue.  Once I return to the PC I can answer the dialog then the problem files would be processed.  It would just make things so much more user friendly.
