-Currently, in a git annex view, filenames take the form basename%path%.ext. I understand that this is a carefully drafted mapping to allow changes to be merged back into metadata. However, maybe it would be possible to make the separator ('%') and the order (e.g. path%basename.ext instead) configurable?

-git-annex really doesn't care what filenames are used with in a view.
-It only needs to ensure that each file gets a unique filename. Which
-is why the directory is included in the filename, to avoid conflicts
-if 2 files with the same name appear in different directories.
-
-It would probably be better to make it avoid needing to include the
-directory in the filename unless there is such a conflict, rather than
-adding complexity configuring that.
-
-However, since views are currently built by streaming the contents of the
-branch to git update-index, git-annex can't just eg, examine the working
-tree to see if a conflicting file exists. It seems it would need to keep
-a map of the files it's added to the view branch so far, and check against
-the map. But that would make memory use scale with the number of files in
-the view, which I'd prefer to avoid..
-
-I'm going to move this from bugs to todo.
