[Bug 1483589] [NEW] Can't import a file with the same name in a ContentStore scope

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Having a ContentStore for a particular scope doesn't enable to import
more than once a file name.

If you use:
ContentStore {
        id: appStore
        scope: ContentScope.App
}

and then:
peer.request(appStore)

-> the state transfer changed go to "initiated", "in progress" and
"abort" the second time you try to import the same file, not giving you
even a chance to rename it.

It doesn't only abort if the files are the same as touch "foo.png" for instance have the same effect.
One solution would have been to keep storing in the temp directory (so no argument to peer.request(), grab the uri of a through an app scoped ContentStore and use contentitem.move() directly.

However, this isn't possible as ContentStore.uri gives: Accessing ContentStore uri with NULL internal store
and we can't access to it.

Another reason it would be insteresting to have the ContentStore.uri
path outside of any transfer would be to reference only relative paths
for instance in Image {} components and so on, independant of the
absolute full path.h
