Not? I try to imagine any rename functionality where this is not
desired but I fail.
- Any operating system renaming (files or in table views) shows the
whole name first.
- Google search: your search query is displayed and can be easily
"renamed"
- I cannot think of any web application rename function that violates
this standard
I think this is the very essence of REname compared to "give a name".
