Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:
1. In Konqueror, create a file
2. Copy that file so that you have now a new file with a different name
3. Edit the new file with the editor of your choice
4. In Konqueror, choose Edit->Undo:Copy
Result: Without questions asked Konqueror removes the edited file, taking possibly hours of work
with it. No undo of this delete offered.

Expected result: Konqueror either not undoing a copy when the copied
file has been changed, or at least asking if the user is sure.

I tested this in Dapper ( 4:3.5.2-0ubuntu26). This same behaviour seems
to exist in Edgy, too.
