In the editor, if you change the name of a file to the same name of another file and save, it deletes the old one in place of the new one without warning.

Could it perhaps give you a warning when you do this?

Sure, I'll see about adding this. You changed the difficulty to one you already had? It shouldn't conflict with other people's beatmaps, only multiple difficulties of the same title/artist/creator combo.

I don't think it'll happen very often, but here's my story anyway:

I had a normal mode and was working on hard mode.

I decided that both modes were too easy, so normal mode would be easy mode and hard mode would be normal mode. I renamed hard mode normal mode and saved, and lost what is now easy mode.

I think it should be like Windows Movie Maker, where it will simply refuse to overwrite same-named files (except unlike Windows Movie Maker, this wouldn't be annoying, since how often are you going to have same named .osu files?).
