retain library id when copy and paste to overwite a library item

We'd like to have an option to retain library id when copy and paste to overwite a library item.


e.g.

when copy file "/folderA/file1" to folder "/folderB/" which already has file1 in it,

a dialog is prompt to select how to deal with duplication, if we select "Replace existing item", the file is ovewriten as we expected but the ID of file "/folderB/file1" is changed to something else.


We want to keep the ID of file "/folderB/file1" from changing.


The change of ID may be causing problems if this file is sheduled to reload periodically on web player.
