Ed-- Good thoughts but I have not explored the transfer of subpage published filename to the wrapping page. The default is the foundation page that matters in publishing. Even if you specify pertinent prefix in subpage content class, the wrapping page filename will not follow.
For that task, RQL script is a better cnadidate. Unless some others have a "transfer" trick.
