Which is an issue that our BFilePanel implementation can take care of, by
alerting the user ("Similar name already existing! Confirm?") in such case for
example. Or by applying the policy setup by user (replace the similar name
file, always lowercase, whatever, your call).
But I can't see why we should inforce the user to always choose... BTW, what?
Uppercase win, or lowercase?
BeOS was and still is about (easy) system full control user's feeling. Keep him
choose. After all, he's the human here!
