I'm hesitating between option #1 and #3. If you implement #3, it should
not be YES/NO, it should have clear button labels. It could look like
this:

Status in Phatch = Photo & Batch!: Confirmed

Bug description:
Binary package hint: phatch

Currently, if you uncheck the "Overwrite existing images" option, phatch still processes the image before trying to check if it should be saved or not.

I know this is not easy to fix, but ideally, when I have a thousand images to process and launch the batch job multiple times, it should just continue where it left off, without reprocessing images that already have an existing output file.
