what Vadim probably meant, was the fact that, that it would always be 
shown in case of an existing filename, but I've also implemented the 
'kNavDontConfirmReplacement' in the case this flag is not set. But it's 
a long time since I've last tested these flags, so I'll do that again 
now and report back (note also that the 'hidden' extension feature is a 
source for files looking the same in the finder, but not having the same 
filename)

Thanks,

Stefan
