Does Jaguar add a "Replace all" button?

Right now, when copying files to a folder where they already exist, you have to click on "replace" for every file... it's pretty annoying.
Can one of your Jaguar user tell me if they added a "replace all" button? It sound like nothing, but everytime a PC user see me clicking a dozen time on that "replace" button, they just can't help laughing...

Not as of yet. But the feature set may not be finalized (we don't know).

When I'm copying a bunch of files to a directory in which some or all already exist, I skip out on the Finder.

Go to your friendly neighborhood Terminal, and type
cp /path/to/source/files/whatever* /path/to/destination

Shazam! No prompting to replace all!

I know, it's not the best solution, and Apple should add this to the Finder, but at least this is a workaround until a Replace All button does show up.

Yeah, but you're missing a lot more. You know, stability, a decent command line, built in security, a good interface...
