--- Comment #10 from Lurkningen <lurknin...@aol.com> ---
Often the rightmost part of long file names (with the exception of the
extension) is the most useless part, with specific details such as unique IDs,
tags, or long version strings being tacked at the end. And sometimes you can
get some of that "noise" both at the start and at the end of the file name,
with the result that with the new behaviour the actual useful part of the file
name becomes completely hidden.
A smarter way to do this would be to try to always show the extension and put
the ellipsis just before it, though handling double extensions won't be
straightforward.
In any case I think it would be better to make this optional. Sometimes you
just want to be certain that the file name you are seeing is the actual file
name. I've seen one too many file names with ellipses in them and the first
time I saw the new behaviour I didn't even realise those weren't part of the
file name.
