When the primary file storage is migrated to the hash-based filestore, that will decouple physical filenames from logical filenames and make that feasible.
I do want to make sure it's done before the end of the year, but it's not a top priority (and we want to be damn sure migration will work correctly when it happens; we'll have near half a terabyte of data to migrate when the time comes!) so it won't be tomorrow.
Would any kind of hack usable by non-admins be conceivable? I mean, considering that a rename can be modelled simple as a copy followed by a delete...being able to rename would do wonders for file naming consistency.
