Public bug reported:
Tar overwrites files old or new without prompting by default. This
means that, 1 a user could download a tar file for a theme, untar it at
the CLI and have it overwrite config files in the home dir. And 2, it
means that when I went to untar my home dir backup just now to get back
some files, I lost the last few days changes to the files I had not
accidentaly deleted. Not good for noobs.
