--- Comment #1 from Nate Graham <nate at kde.org> ---
Seems rather out of scope for Dolphin; you're describing the functionality of a
backup program.

I agree with you that a lot of people use Dolpgin as a kind of quick-and-dirty
backup program anyway, dragging-and-dropping a folder with there data onto an
external disk. My wife does this, in fact. And indeed, it works fine except for
one thing: the lack of an option to delete files in the destination that aren't
in the source: a "synchronize" option.

Perhaps this could be added to the Overwrite dialog in a way that would show
big blaring warnings about how it will delete data.
