If I want to produce unique names for uploaded files, the current 'uniq' naming convention is good, but has some problems.
1) Doesn't reserve the original name of the file( "UserGuide[2].pdf" is still better than "ssakjhDsdfd23213dsfds.pdf")
2) The names are TOO long! they require more database space, and make HTML files bigger(Few bytes only)
I want to be able to have unique names in the following format
userGuide.pdf
userGuide[1].pdf
userGuide[2].pdf
I noticed that this is not yet implemented. If you think this is a feature everybody might need, I will work on the package and add this option.
