           Summary: RFE: improve {unique} behaviour for coupled files
                    (jpg+raw)
           Product: digikam
           Version: 1.6.0
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Advanced Rename
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: mhlavink at redhat.com


Version:           1.6.0 (using KDE 4.5.90) 
OS:                Linux

I've tried to batch rename new files from camera. I always rename files to
[date] so it's easy to process them when I put together pictures from more
cameras.

Files are *.jpg+*.cr2 , but sometimes I take more pictures within one second.
But the result is "OK" button is disabled, despite name collisions are handled
quite fine during renaming.

When I use {unique} file.jpg and file.cr2 are always renamed to file.jpg,
file_1.cr2 so I can't use it.

When I do not use {unique}, I'm not allowed to rename files, nor change
individual collisions, but I have to cancel renaming dialog, deselect files
causing collisions, rename files and handle remaining files manually.

a){unique} should add _<number> suffix only for complete name collisions
(including file name extensions)

b)add something new like {unique} with behviour from a)

bonus:
1) start file name renaming even with collisions (inform with warning after
clicking ok/warning displayed above ok button) and let them be handled
individually

2)let user change file name collisions in old and new file names list. 

Reproducible: Always
