Oops, yes.

!! What if you do the reverse copying?

You copy A to B.
Then you copy B to A.
This will (now) give you a "An older item, A, exists" message box, right?

But if you copy A to B, then you get "An older item, B, exists".

Both can't be right. All we know in kio is that those two files have the same
mtime, so better not say anything about which one's older and which one's
newer, don't you think?
