Research direction
Reproduce the behavior by selecting a measure containing music and clicking the measure repeat in the palette panel, then compare it with dragging the repeat onto the same measure. Trace the palette-click interaction and warning-dialogue path; done means clicking offers the same warning and permits replacing the existing music as dragging does.
