When I add images that already exist in the epub, Sigil asks if I want to do the replace. But it asks me that, for each image to be "replaced". Would it be possible to add an option in the dialog so Sigil can do the replace (or no replace) for all images without asking for each image (to repeat the action for all images)?

That is on my long term to-do list but it is very very low priority. I think there is even an issue filed on our github site about it.

It sounded familiar to me, too.

Notepad++ recently added "No to All" + "Yes to All" buttons as well (when closing a window with multiple unsaved tabs).

I find it extremely helpful.

Based on Tex2002ans's comments above .. we just added two more buttons to the AddExisting... image replacement dialog, "YesToAll" and "NoToAll".

This should make adding existing xhtml files with lots of duplicate image names you do not want easier, as well as adding lots of images to replace those in an existing epub.

The original bug report was from 2015 so this only took us 5 years!

This fix is now in master and will appear in the next release.

That was probably me. I know I've mentioned it quite a few times over the years.
