I disagree, and I'd like to see file renaming opened up. It sucks seeing a file with a blatantly wrong name sitting there for years. Sure, the file names could be totally arbitrary (a882be8.jpg) or they could be extremely meaningful - but having them stuck at whatever the uploader originally thought of is not ideal. Especially since redirects exist and work.
