You have represented that all LaTeX users expect pristine files when they use the usual filenames. I claim that you have no way to know what all LaTeX users expect, and Henning says "well, many do expect that, if not all". Those who do not expect pristine files--for whatever reason, 200 years from now, for example, or people doing weird wacky things you've never thought of, or who know perfectly well what they are doing in changing a file and therefore *don't* expect a "pristine" version--those people have a freedom removed by the renaming requirement. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
