When you upload a new version of an image, if you enter some text in the field that would usually be used for the description, it goes in the upload summary. Can it be changed (possibly a separate page for uploads that are gonna overwrite files and then disable overwriting uploads from the main Special:Upload) so there's a field for an upload summary and a separate one for the description? If the description part is blank in the overwriting upload, it won't overwrite the old description and if it isn't, it will.
I think it would be easier if the "Upload warning" page with the two button "save file" and "re-upload" will also have checkbox with an option to overwrite the current page description if "save file" is chosen.
