[Digikam-users] Renaming files

[Alan Pater]

A bit off topic, but I'm curious as to what the advantage there is in
renaming image files? All that information is already in the metadata
which can include descriptions, tags, hierarchical keywords, location,
people, animals, etc, etc. The images can be organized and sorted
using the metadata and ignoring the filenames.
