DOES media_duplicates work in conjunction with this module, i.e. will it prevent duplicates being created during a bulk upload?
If not, I think the ability to use some method, given a folder, whether file name or checksum would be great. One use case of the bulk upload is that people have media organized into various folders by some category, and do not want them put in year_month folders, as that does not make them easy to find at all. So, once the bulk upload of existing media in their existing folders has completed, what happens when more images are added to those folders? That's when it becomes important to be able to upload from a folder and either filter based on date added being after a certain date or have some means to avoid the previous items from being added again.

FYI: I have installed the media_duplicates module and it doesn't seem to work with media_bulk_upload as you are still able to upload media while duplicates exist
When using the regular media upload only, the new module throws a form error which stops you creating a new media item while the same file exists, so there would need to be an extra step to ensure the bulk upload continues to process the other media entities after the duplicate is reached.
