Hiya - what exactly are you asking for?  An option which turns on some
magic filename munging if it spots a collision?  So that "somefile.txt"
and "SomeFile.txt" locally become "somefile.1.txt" and "somefile.2.txt"
remotely? I'm not sure that sitecopy is the right place to do that - it
doesn't really sound generally useful for web site maintenance.
