bei->ihi: please calm down and describe EXACTLY what you need and WHY you need
it while avoiding unclear formulation like saying "something like" or adding
"..." leaving to much room for additional guesswork of what you might mean by
the reader but offering a concrete proposal for a change instead. For the
getting it right at the first place argument I would like to remind you that
discussion on this was open from the first time when that scheme was introduced
and that everyone with additional needs like you seem to have could have gotten
involved early. We have been using this scheme without complaints for a long
time. It already did change a few times and our tools already have the burden to
having to handle multiple naming schemes for the same files. For the getting it
right at the first time part of your argument i think it is also unacceptable to
require the tools and processes using these files to be able to handle not one
but say 3 or maybe even 10 different formats just because somebody suddenly
realizes after months or years of use that the currently used format may be not
quite 100% to his/her taste. The problem is not to match on something in just
one scheme like the -dev- mentioned by you but to change the used scheme
multiple times and than requiring from the tools to be able to guess on which
among a set of possible schemes for a given purpose actually was used by a
concrete file.  The possible benefit of such a change must be higher to the pain
introduce by it. I just supplied my argument that the pain is probably too high
and am open to hear about the possible benefit.
