I didn't say it wasn't a change for the better -- i just said it was a Bad Idea. Bad Ideas, however, are necessary sometimes, but Good Software design typically involves deprecation, not outright deletion. One word: transactions. Bad Ideas can be Not So Bad Ideas when you throw in the ability to roll back. Sure, it is my responsibility to make backups (which i have), but MAJOR changes such as this are Bad Ideas because if they are not atomic, they will lead to Head Aches.
I still think a simple check to make sure that the user id had not already been prepended to the filename would be a good safety belt.
