I don't know if this has been on the record before, but 'file-roller'
may silently overwrite destination files if you are unlucky with the
--extract-to= command. This is nothing we can foresee and correct in
Kupfer without reimplementing unextraction of all formats
ourselves(!). This is why extract to folder has been rejected before.
