As a Confluence administrator I would like to get a confirmation before starting a full site import/restore

      Problem Definition

      The Backup & Restore administration page takes care of both Space Import and Site Restore on the same location.

      The only straight differentiator to a site export and a space export is the name of the file, which can be changed while moving it from one place to another.

      If, by mistake, the administrator uploads a site export file meaning to perform a space import, there will be no following warning and confirmation before the operations kicks-in and start to delete content from the database.

      Suggested Solution

      There could be 2 actions to a better solution on the UI:

      1. Keep both actions separated so there's no mistake on what type of operation the administrator is doing.
      2. When identifying this is a full site import, provide a warning and a confirmation on the UI before deleting content from the database.
