The problem is knowing what the old file name was. Calibre generates the file name and gives the driver an opportunity to modify it (this is used for kepubs). But, if the book is already on the device, I don't know if at that time there is anyway to know that and what the file name is. And using the old file name is a problem. The example you gave with the quote was to fix a problem on the device. From memory, the cover image handling was broken with this. Or, it might have been an issue with kepubs. In those circumstances, reusing the old file name might not be a good idea.

I'll have a look when I get a chance, but I'm not sure when that will be.
