Public bug reported:
There is two problems with this:
1. We just blindly overwrite any existing files in the export directory
2. If two songs with the same title (but different lyrics) are exported one
song overwrites the other.
One solution would be to ask the user if they want to over write, rename or
skip with an option to apply to all. (This wouldn't really resolve the issue
with same name different lyrics)
Or we could time stamp the file name (Again this wouldn't really resolve the
issue with same name different lyrics)
We could also detect if the file exists and increment a counter in the file
name. (Probably best combined with the time stamp)
