Why not just use "pass insert your_old_pass_id"
instead of "pass edit your_old_pass_id"?

It just warns the user that this password entry already exists and
asks if the user wants to overwrite it. The user hits "y" and 
the old password gets successfully overwritten with the new one, with no
/dev/shm complaints.
