--- Comment #2 from oswcab <[email protected]> ---
In fact, that's what I always do. However, I found it cumbersome: frequently  I
work with a bunch of folders with the same structure, i.e, they all have the
same file structure, files with identical names (journal.ods, journal.odt,
journal.xml, journal.csv, etc ... because that's a convention we have with our
editors for they to transmit us information). What differentiates one file form
another one with the same name is the folder they are stored in. 

This files are supposed to be treated by a machine (an application I'm
developing) but as I said, I frequently have to compare many files (four or
more at the same time) all called 'journal.odt', for example,  and it's
difficult to remember which is which. If editing is needed, accidental
modification of the wron file is always a possibility. In the future, our
technicians will be confronted with the same case when doing quality control
before the final publication. 

Finally I'd say that MS Office offers this feature but it's useless for us
because it refuses to open two files with the same name even if they are
located in different folders, a bug (a feature they said) I find absolutely
ridiculous. 

Thanks
