Unfortunately it's per-show only, meaning you can't use it with playlists, so it gets tedious issuing it for several dozen recordings. If one could whip up a keyboard macro then it might also be a good approach.

If anyone wants to submit a patch to add "Allow re-record" to the 
Playlist Options (under Storage Options--so in 
PlaybackBox::showPlaylistStoragePopup()), I'd be happy to commit it.
