MEDIA_UNIQUE_FILENAME question

Just wondering if folks are using the MEDIA_UNIQUE_FILENAME option in
bricolage.conf ?

I typically see all kinds of crazy filenames from our users, e.g.:
spaces, punctuation, mixed case, etc. and I'm wondering if setting
this would help keep things uniform and might prevent media filename
collisions?

Phillip.

It's great and works really well for us, we have 30000+ media all with
consistent filenames, in the right case, no spaces or strange characters
and no two are the same.

Oh and I suppose I should point out I wrote it :-)

Paul
