I suppose that is one way to see it, yes. But using md5 or other
checksum/hash ways to encode names of temporary files is hardly new
(though I suppose you'll say it is not new, but it *is* wrong
nonetheless :)

But the point is moot. Does anyone object to the version of
thumbs-thumbname I proposed a few messages ago, where the resulting
filename is very much like the one it generates now, but valid and
with a sxhash checksum added to it to make collisions less likely?
