Bug Description
Sometimes enblend stops with error code 1 and a message "excessive overlap detected; remove one of the images". This behavior is arbitrary. F.e. a test project with 8 images all in the exact same place on an equirectangular canvas doesn't cause the error. The message is probably related to http://
enblend versions prior to 4.0 used to warn on redundant images and in fact version 4.0 still does f.e in case of the above mentioned project with 8 images.
I agree, I would rather see either:
1. discard the redundant image
2. attempt to blend the images anyway with a warning
The current situation results in a lot of user frustration. It would be better for them to see bad results than have no result at all after (potentially) hours of processing.
