Put me on the list of folks who would like to have a job ID based on the PDF 
name automatically appear in the slug of the imposition.

C. Yue wrote back to me with that very same response (verbatum). It's a 
solution that would either work only "once" or if all you wanted was simply the 
"template name" that was being used. For our needs that is not enough 
information, since we use a single template for multiple data files sometimes 
for different clients month after month. We would need is something that can 
give us either the name of the data file (via a 
FusionPro.Composition.inputFileName command), or having the imposition template 
"programmed" with the same data stream/headers that its calling pdf template is 
using and pull out a "jobID" data field that is in that stream.

THAT is EXACTLY what we (and I'm sure others as well) would need.

Yes, I saw this a few days after I posted my message.  It puts the name
of the original template as the slug, which is close to what I wanted
but not quite exactly what I need.  If there was a function that took
the name of the file I am composing to, and use that as the slug, that
would be perfect.  A field in the compose screen that allows me to
enter in slug text would be cool too.
