Yep this is intentionale to protect people against typo which accidentally
overwrite their VM. The main guest list window has a 'delete' button to
let you remove existing VM & its config, at which point you'll get past
this check.

BTW, did you get a popup  dialog box showing you the error, or was it
merely logged to the console as this stack trace ?  It should popup a
dialog & its a bug if it doesn/t
