You can continue to sleep soundly at night because _it does_.

But sometime we introduce a minor infelicity as we rename the files in a by
hand / by script manner.  We are aware of this and am trying to do this as

As Michael pointed out, you can a) generally debug the behaviour and b)
override it.
