SFTP Connector (SFTPFileTransfer Connector) - Prevent silent overwriting of files

This is for SFTP Connector (aka SFTPFileTransfer Connector) 

When transferring files using this connector, if the file with same name already exists in destination, then this connector silently overwrites the existing file with the file being transferred.

Is there a way (maybe through a JSON argument in the connection configuration) to prevent this behaviour?

I want the transfer to error out if a file already exists, and keep erroring out until the file from destination is removed.

Should I create an Idea for this?

@yogesh : No it is not possible. As per documentation it clearly states files will get overwritten if there is a file with same name. I would suggest to open an IDEA for the same.
