I generally avoid overwriting a panel file. Yes, it is a bit more work
if I'm autoloading at startup as I have to update the startup for the
new name. But there are too many ways that a new store of a file might
be bad yet not noticeable for a while. I don't rely on the automatic
backup as if I'm doing it, via the name change, I know for sure what
is what.
