Copy to clipboard implementation issues

As far as I understand, copy to the clipboard from FTP listing is done as follows:

1. Hidden directory is created in temp directory, like: C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp\scp57345
   
2. ReadDirectoryChangesW monitors are installed on all local drives with subtree watch.
   
3. HDROP format with hidden directory path is placed on the clipboard.
   
4. When directory with the same name as hidden directory is created on any local drive, it is removed and replaced with the object that should be copied.
   

Issues:

1. If target directory already contains item with the source item name, WinSCP silently replaces it. In type mismatch cases (file<->folder) WinSCP displays confirmation.
   Target application should perform copy operation, not the source app. Source app should prepare source object and perform the cleanup. Target should be able to check object existence and display confirmation, but in current implementation it can't, because HDROP contains temporary name.
   
2. If a directory with the same temporary name will be created somewhere on the local disks, but not as part of this clipboard operation, it will be replaced with the source object.

Overwrite confirmation is shown by default, unless you have disabled it:

Otherwise you are correct.
