Hi Shinji,

It is a fair question. I do think Bert makes a good case for moving away
from filenames that are a copy of the archetypeId, and I also think that
any file naming patterns should be advisory rather than compulsory. I don't
think I would want to carry the namespace in a human readable file name.
