Public bug reported:
When copying or moving files from one directory to another, it is very
often useful to know if there are identical files in the destination
directory, albeit under different names. This should not be done by
default, but using a "paste special" operation that could be placed as a
menu entry that opens a dialog with the check box "Check for destination
files with identical content"; later, other check boxes can be added.
If files with identical content are found, open a dialog letting the
user skip the file, rename the file, or cancel the whole copy operation.
This dialog would be similar to the Replace File dialog and maybe it can
be integrated with it.
