Florian Apolloner just wrote a patch for that and attached it to the
ticket.

There are not many situations where you would need the filename of the
thing in the pre-save command.  If we can collect some situations
where this would be useful it makes sense to think about it.  I
personally think it was a design mistake in the first place and should
be changed to the behavior it's showing currently.
