Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Not particularly.

Describe the solution you'd like
When changing a request's parameters or anything, there isn't currently any clear way to "Save" or update the request (if it's already saved in a Collection). There is only the option to save it, which makes an entirely new request, and then we must delete the old request in the collection. Or am I missing something?
At least if saving to a collection with the same name or otherwise URL or something, it should overwrite by default, or just prompt the user to overwrite.

You can actually select your "old request" while saving the updated one. This will overwrite the previous one.
