This will also save write cycles when accessing content on a flash drive.

Last I checked, the answer to this was "No." It's probably a reasonable feature/option/tweak, and you may want to
make a formal request (unless someone knows how to do this and it has changed since my last check.)

Also I noticed Calibre checks only the book name when adding files. Realizing that some books having the same title is quite common, could it be something that could be added easily?

Calibre gets metadata stored inside the book, or metadata from the filename (by a regex) depending on the setting in Preferences|Import/Export|Adding Books|"Read metadata ...."

Last but not least, can Calibre be linked to Sigil and ePubCheck to make it part of a kind of eBook development suite?

You can open any book with Sigil (Press O and open it in Sigil) or turn off the internal viewer and set your OS to open with Sigil for viewing. As to ePubCheck, I'll leave it to others to answer.
