When I upload a file that has the same name as another one I already have, I'm asked to "create a new version".

This is confusing to users as they are not sure what "a new version" is. So, we should show the normal options instead: keep both files (and rename the one I'm uploading; we could even ask the users to give a name) or replace file (which will create a version).

IMO a good improvement which brings us closer to the native desktop (whichever platform) experience. @tbsbdr can we have a look at our roadmap for this?

This issue is about a UX change for uploading a file that already exists. Not fixable by any backend change. ;-)

Again 🙈 This issue is linked in a now passing test scenario. Weird
