I have a suggestion

Hello
Indeed, I have a suggestion. Can I write it here down? (thanks to move it if necessary)

There is a feature that does not exist yet and, imho, it would be pretty useful.

When one makes a conversion (for instance: epub to pdf), we should have an option : KEEP THE ORIGINAL FILENAME. (Or does it exist already? Haven't seen it...)

Example:
I recently converted 100+ Georges Simenon (yep, the Belgian writer) from epub to pdf.
I had 19 different formats!!! ...none of them what I wanted (what i want is: Name First-name Publication-date [Series Series-#] Title).
For instance:
Simenon Georges 1942 La veuve Couderc.pdf
(or
Simenon Georges 1947 Maigret 046 La pipe de Maigret.pdf)
I don't know exactly where Calibre takes the filename to create the pdf file, obviously not from metadata (I checked). Probably from somewhere in the epub file.
Right now, I do that manually and it's frustrating.

Of course, this feature should work for all kinds of conversions...

Thanks in advance.
