We discussed this topic in the design meeting. While file management operation
shouldn't be in the program it's a different situation if mac users are used to
it. 

What do you think, Tor? Does it make sense, is it feasible to implement (mac
only, perhaps)=

@Cor Nouws: no one forces you to use it. It is completely optional. I am
completely happy to inactive by default, like many other tools from the
toolbars. I wold be happy to have it as a separate extension. 

File name is effectively a property of a document. And as such it is perfectly
in sphere of Office suite functionality.

Making someone's life easier should take precedence over subjectively perceived
software "purity". 

I don't consider this functionality to be big hydrance on LO development
resources either, otherwise I would bother them with it. I fully acknowledge
that this functionality is a niche one and therefore low priority.

By the way, how is it done in the Online version of LO?

I don't think implementing this file manager feature is a wise thing. What more
to come..

That was my implementation assumption too.
If you deem it too complicated, I would have perhaps a simpler idea: "deferred
renaming".
The actual, physical renaming would be done after user closes the document. 
At least on platforms not supporting opened file renaming, like Windows.

LO just need to display modified "Save changes to document" dialog informing
that rename is going to happen and user can still have option to cancel and not
go through.

Also on the UI level the name should be displayed in a different font color
indicating that the physical rename hasn't happened yet. 

I know, it's not ideal, but for most user, like me, it would still make my work
much easier. I have lost of documents and I like consistent naming which is
difficult to achieve, because you have to first, open the file and to see the
content, to decide on the name, but you cannot, because it is open.

This is a feature common to macOS. For that platform I absolutely agree it
should be implemented -- to not makes it a non-standard program and can lead to
confusion.

For Linux and Windows this is not a standard feature. Yes, it would be a
benefit if those environments gained this but to add it to LibreOffice alone
would not do much, few would use it.

I know, more than thirty years doing so, and that's the way to keep the file
properties on the system, but I think it can't be implement inside LibreOffice
without close the file at some point.

Simple solution: close -> rename -> reopen. And remember the current position.

Maybe Mac OSX manage it at OS level, but if I'm not wrong on windows change the
name of an open file, wich it's the case, it's no possible.

--- Comment #7 from Heiko Tietze  ---
The idea received positive resonance in the UX meeting. The proposed solution
is to make File > Properties > General > Filename editable. 

We should be aware of alien files such as PDF or Doc opened in Writer or XLS in
Calc, SVG in Draw. It's questionable to rename those files as well. The
filename input could be disabled when save is disabled.

(moving component from framework to UI)
