Though it does actually what was intended I still think this is a very 
crude workaround.
If I don't know about the mentioned behaviour I would not click on "Save 
as" when I
just want to rename a unit. I would search for a function "Rename" instead.
"Save as" is a common function for creating a copy of something.
That a dialog will appear that allows deletion of the original version
is completely unexpected an unintuitve. Much better would be to offer
a "Rename" directly.
