Steps To Reproduce:
The following steps are for the Create XML File wizard, but apply to the New WSDL File and the Create XML Schema wizards as well.

1. Create an XML file anywhere in your file system by any means available, e.g., create a document named simple.xml in c:\temp, with the contents: <simple/> using a text editor.
2. Switch to the Resource perspective: Window > Open Perspective > Other > Resource.
3. Create a Project: File > New > Project > General > Project.
4. Open the Create XML File wizard: File > New > Other > XML > XML
5. Select 'Create XML file from scratch' and click Next.
6. Select the project you created in step 3 in the project selection tree.
7. Click on the Advanced >> button.
8. Click on the 'Link to file in the file system' checkbox.
9. Enter the full path to the file you created in step 1, using the Browse button or by typing in the text field.
10. Click Finish.

Result: the file created in step 1 is overwritten with a basic XML document, without any warning.
Expected result: a dialog requesting confirmation of the overwrite should be displayed, as an overwrite may not be expected, given that creating a file link via New > File does not overwrite the target.
