The JavaFX FileChooser provides build-in functionality to confirm replacing a file. Porting this behaviour would be useful. This relates to #7 (comment)

For example:

  1. Open File chooser in "SAVE AS" or "EXPORT" mode as per comment (e.g., FileAccess.SAVE_AS, or FileAccess.EXPORT)
  2. Double-click a file
  3. File chooser opens a "Confirmation Dialog"
  4. Confirmation Dialog prompts user to overwrite (has OK and Cancel buttons, as per ButtonBar order)
  5. Click OK for Confirmation Dialog to close, File chooser to close, and then return selected file name; or
  6. Click Cancel (or press Esc, or click "X" in dialog window) to close Confirmation Dialog but keep File chooser dialog open

I've generally been handling this in the application itself, because this kind of code is subject to "time of check, time of use" issues. I suppose it's harmless enough to perform an extra check in the dialog, but I'd like a way to opt-out.

This implements two APIs:

  * An API for requiring the confirmation of selections
    of existing files when the chooser is in CREATE
    mode.
