• It wouldn’t do anything you can’t do already. You can restore a database with a new name, verify it is OK, drop the old database, and then rename the restored database.

    There are so many possible scenarios for a restore that I don’t think it is really that useful. For example, a complete restore up to a point in time of a failure using the full backup and transaction log backups.

    I rarely use the GUI for a restore; I find that it’s easier to use a script.
