I like it too. And actually it's very consistent with all the names in Darktable: light table, dark room, ... > It would be nice if you could enter a title during import.

When you import from camera (or SD card), you can use $(JOBCODE) as "flexible name" that you can enter for each import and use it wherever you like (either in the folder or file name). You first select the files you want to mark with a certain $(JOBCODE) and import them, then select other files with a new $(JOBCODE), and so on. That said, I'm not using DT import from camera at the moment because DT doesn't support renaming based on EXIF metadata.
