It seems that moving an attachment to a page that has an attachment with the same name loses the old one ...
I have just moved
SmiliesPlugin.zip from
SmiliesPluginDev to
SmiliesPlugin and the old version of the package seems to be disappeared.

Stands to reason that if you move a file from one directory to a directory that contains a file of the same name its going to get over written.
Possible Solutions that I can see:
- Come up with a warning convention letting the user know if this is about to happen. and require confirmation
- Detect when file already exists. and propose a _# to the new file name
- Detect when file already exists, and upload with the same file name but with a new (higher) version number (maybe with the option to overwrite (delete) the old verion if disk space is an issue.
- Ignore this bug and call it a feature !
