Just one minor issue:  starting with a 0.9pre release (if I remember
correctly) the MakeAppWorkDir.py script refused to write the application
skeleton when the target directory already existed.

I used to check out e.g. the "MyApp" directory from version control and
webware-ify it with "MakeAppWorkDir.py MyApp" afterwards.

I have usually checked in everything that is needed (directory structure, config files and launcher), so that it runs out of the box without the need to "webware-ify" anything. This is not much overhead and it makes sense to save the config files anyway.

This doesn't work anymore, is there a specific reason for this behaviour?

I can allow running on an existing working dir, but how should MakeAppWorkDir behave if the config files or the launcher script already exist? Overwrite or keep (there could be some customization in the config files and launcher script already)? Maybe we can add an option --overwrite, but what should be the default?
