Hi everyone!. As a possible solution to
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=185590 ("overwrite file" function
being implemented on the application instead of using the
KFileDialog::confirmOverwrite option (even when it may not need to do
anything special to it)), I suggest to add an extra optional parameter
to every KFileDialog/KEncodingFileDialog save-related static function.
(IIRC we can modify the API if this do not affect the existent
applications behaviour)

Can this be done? Do you have any other thought about this? Any drawback?
Do you remember any other application that is not using the default method?

This proposal will be useful to unify the Overwrite file behaviour
which I recently fixed regarding
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=192333 (as Overwrite is a
destructive action, Cancel should be focused by default instead of the
Overwrite button itself)

Thanks in advance.
Regards
