Overwrite existing MySQL database on backup restore
In version 11.30 mysql databases are not restored from backup with all other files if under cpanel account already exist database with the same name.
In version 11.28 and all other before MySQL databases was restored altogether with all files.
Currently we can check checkbox "Restore MySQL DBs" before backup restore, but restored databases are only databases deleted from cpanel account before restore, existing databases are skipped and only files are restored.
That partial restore results in broken website, especially when we need restore some CMS like Joomla or Wordpress.
Please add another option "Overwrite existing MySQL DBs" so we can easily restore complete account from backup archive.
Currently we can restore only account files but MySQL databases need manually restore via SSH.

I like this idea 
cPanel, WebHost Manager and WHM are registered trademarks of cPanel, L.L.C. for providing its computer software that facilitates the management and configuration of Internet web servers.
This was done in (case 120705 : http://documentation.cpanel.net/display/ALD/11.46+Change+Log) in 11.46 for backup restores and for legacy multi backup restores.
In 11.44 we added the option to choose if they are overwritten or not in the single legacy backup restores.

Yes I have same problem.. I miss the "Overwrite existing MySQL DBs" option in new backup restore.

+1 from me
Or, perhaps, a warning on screen when "Restore MySQL" is ticked: "Restoring MySQL will not restore databases that already exist; to overwrite an existing database, you must drop the old one first" - or similar
