Yup, that's pretty much it.
There'd also be a warning/error if the user tries to subscribe to the
same collection again (Either "you can't do that" or "you can do that
but are you really sure you want to do that?"

Both bcm and myself (at least) both found the workflow of

Agreed.
If you always popped up a rename box when subscribing that
wouldn't let you go away until you have the collection a unique
display name, and warns you or prevents you from subscribing to
the same collection twice, several issues will be solved:
1) You won't be able to have two identically named collections
[bug 8595]
2) You won't be able to accidentally subscribe to the same
colllection twice [bug 8325]
3) Workflow is more efficient [bug ????]
So let me understand the proposal you're suggesting:
1. User clicks on subscribe button.
2. Enter in ID/PW
3. Another dialog appears with (or a dynamic dialog expands with
instructions below):
'You've already subscribed to this collection. What would you like
to do?'
[ ] Cancel and return to what I was viewing.
[ ] Rename this collection [ ] and add it
again to my account.
[ x ] Do not add this collection to my account but log me into the
web UI.
[Okay]
We can modify the language, but is this the gist of what you're
suggesting?
