Overwriting plugins

[AndrewD]

Excuse cross-posting, also asked on vb.com....

I'm sure this has already been asked and explained...

The sequence
1- Install product in vb
2- Import addon plugin(s) that relate to that product
3- Install product again, telling it to overwrite

will delete the plugin(s) installed at step 2

However, the sequence
1- Install product
2- Import addons plugin(s) that relate to that product
3- Import these plugins again

leaves you with two copies of the plugin(s), i.e there is no option to overwrite plugins.

Am I missing something? It would be a useful option to automatically overwrite plugins when re-importing. Telling the user to delete them before reimporting can be a bit of a pain, as you have to do this one at a time for all the plugins associated with a hack.
