Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Copy/paste /w rename to the same folder is a common operation in a local filesystem like Windows Explorer. I often want to make a copy of a VHD but rename it side-by-side from the original. Storage Explorer does not handle this gracefully.

Describe the solution you'd like
After paste, when the conflict dialogue pops up, instead of just overwrite (or cancel) it should give you the ability to rename

Describe alternatives you've considered
It shouldb be easy to do to this in GUI of Azure Storage explorer. Azcopy already support this.
Azcopy copy SourceURI RenamedDestinationURI

Before figuring out azcopy I actually had to upload the blob twice, which is lame, uses bandwidth unnecessarily, and doesn't do a server-side copy
