Update existing entry

[Ryo IGARASHI]

Update existing entry in the database to the ADS one. Overwrite/Merge option should be provided.

This should be a general feature of JabRef, not a feature specific to a given fetcher.
This is already filed as feature request for JabRef: https://sourceforge.net/p/jabref/feature-requests/689/

I agree, but not all databases works for everybody. For example SPIRES
does not work for me while ADS does. For somebody in high energy
physics the situation could be the opposite.
Unless there is a mechanism that works for everybody, havng it in the
fetcher makes much more sense
