In your download() function, I suppose you could retrieve the stored filename based on the record ID, and then do:
request.args.append(the_filename) before calling response.download(). Note, using this method, someone could download all of your images by simply incrementing the record ID in the URL (that wouldn't be possible with the usual method, because each filename includes a uuid and the encoded original filename).
