Setting to allow for duplicate sources?
Right now, it's convenient that if you drop a bunch of sources in the Sources panel, DSE will only add non-duplicates.
Sometimes one might want this sort of setup, in which one source represents two spots in a designspace.
I wonder if there could be a checkbox setting somewhere to allow duplicates to make this possible in DSE.
Granted, the type of person who would do this is likely comfortable with editing a .designspace file by hand, and if one does so and reopens DSE, everything is fine. And it doesn't look like DSE has any "settings" yet. But just a thought.
There are indeed good reasons to allow duplicates. I suppose DSE could just allow it. Or show a dialog with a question. I'd rather not add a preferences window.

I tested with this change and it allows dragging the same file multiple times.

agree DSE must allow this by default!
- no pref setting
- maybe a popup warning while adding a source or highlighted in the list with an icon like
⧉somewhere?
