I quite often have PDFs which are badly prepared regarding metadata, because they might have generic title data like "Microsoft Word - Title.doc"

Then it easily happens that different documents have the same generic title, but they are still different documents. So I always want to add the new documents. For this everytime I have to click OK in the "Duplicate found" dialog which pops up:

Is there a way (in the settings or the tweak section) to tell calibre to always add the new documents even if a document with the same title already exists?

Thanks for any pointers!
