I believe that's a limitation to work with other OSs
I have rarely seen the filename considered part of the metadata. Personally, I use a subtitle field which my Kobo ereaders are happy to display and a template to truncate the author portion of the filename to the first listed author to generate the filename when sending an ebook to my Kobo ereaders.

This does not affect the title or authors information stored in the metadata which is stored internal to the file and not as part of the filename.
