    _______________________________________________________

Details:

If an author [inadvertently] downloads his/her own add-on using the same
computer from which s/he used to publish it with, the add-on gets overwritten.
This can be important, as files which are ignored by the server, especially
.pbl files will summarily get destroyed.

Can we either test for a _server.pbl file in the add-on's folder to determine
the current user must be the author and prevent the download, or at the very
least, issue a warning when the user is downloading an add-on which is the
same name and version # as one that's already installed?

Thanks
