Since calibre tags the book as "on device", I'd imagine it knows what the old filename is (but I don't see a GUI way to get that). Maybe some change is needed in calibre to make this information available to the driver?

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.

Yes, I understand that. If you implement that I guess the message should indicate that using the old filename could be problematic. There are other cases that could be justified, like minor fixes in a title.

Thank you, no rush
