Comment (by mariovalney):

 I agree.

 Actually my first thinking was to add a "override anyway" after the error
 message in the uploading page. But it was too complicated to a first
 purpose without discussion haha

 If we agree on follow this path I'll would be happy to refact the
 patch/PR.

 About UI, I guess we can use the output we already have, just adding a
 link to allow the overwrite and a simple table with the comparison you
 suggested (at least to this first see).
