Can't you use the 'MAKEUNIQUE' attribute with the CFFILE tag?

Subject: CFFILE ACTION="copy" and NAMECONFLICT
I'm using CFFILE to copy a file from one directory to another on the server.
What happens if the file already exists? It's telling me that I can't use
the NAMECONFLICT attribute when the ACTION is "copy":
========================================
Attribute set validation error in tag CFFILE
The tag has an invalid attribute combination: the value of the tag switch
attribute 'ACTION' which is now 'COPY' requires a different combination of
attributes. For the same switch attribute value the following unknown
attributes have been provided: (NAMECONFLICT).
========================================
Does it just automatically overwrite the file in the destination folder?
Have I got to use CFTRY and CATCH instead?
Seems nuts not to have this built into the CFFILE tag directly...
