Allow restore to existing SQL database
Presently restore does not allow an existing database to be restored. The existing database must be deleted first; then the page must be refreshed;, then when restore is clicked the page requests the database name. At that point the name of the existing database (which was just deleted) must be entered and then restore takes place.

Databases can be restored however as mentioned you must first delete the existing database then restore from backup upon creation. Doing this from an existing database is the exact same process however to keep our interface clean we keep the restore feature only on creation.
