Question - IDE Marketplace Assets Don't Replace?

So I have started back into programming recently after a really long period of inactivity. I had upgraded to GMS2 when it came out because I wanted to make sure I got the discount as I knew I'd come back to it eventually.

Long story short I manage a couple projects at a time when I'm programming because I like to do whatever feels interesting to me at the moment. I looked through threads when I needed to share objects from one of my projects to another (UI stuff mostly right now) and I found that the only effective way to do this is using the Marketplace and unlisted items and the like.

So I did all that and then found out a new problem. Does importing something from your marketplace library no replace existing files? That's a pain because it means that I need to remove the original files, import the new ones, and then reset any parent-child relationships...

Is there anywhere to update existing assets in one project that you have a newer version of in another?
