Description Elliott Baron CLA 2008-06-06 17:17:46 EDT 
Build ID: I20080523-0100

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Create new local task (handle will be "local-#")
2. Export task to xml.zip
3. Import task on another computer

More information:
If a local task exists on that computer with the same "local-#" handle, it will prompt to overwrite the existing task, even though they are otherwise unrelated.

The import now checks for existing tasks with the same ID when importing. An error is logged instead of overwritting the existing task.

This still does not allow sharing of local tasks.
