Rationale
Copy process pauses/interrupts on file conflict. Ideally we would want all file conflicts would be managed before the copy starts and not during the copy.
Such conflicts appear mostly when there's something wrong with the copying in general and are sometimes useful not to mess things up too much when pasting or copying to a folder with many files where you won't be able to pick the new files out easily . So I think the current system is not bad . Is it allowed to post a solution "Leave it be" ?
Just realize that when dealing with mutli-user file servers, you could start a copy operation which expects no conflicts and then one could be created AFTER the copy operations starts. Thus the current system behavior cannot be eliminated, only augmented.
