Right now renaming files with BQM is not possible. If you want to rename them,
you need to
a) assign a target folder
b) assign a tool
to make BQM work at all. But this is not renaming, it is a copy action.
Since I provided another patch for file renaming in AlbumUI (bug 207053), the
purpose of a RenameTool for BQM should be to have different renaming schemes
for the queues.
It COULD be possible to only rename files with the tool, but actually this is
what bug 207053 is for.
A "rename only" solution would be very hackish in my opinion, because we need
to determine how many tools are assigned and which tools they are.
To make "rename only" work, we would look for the assigned tools, determine
that only RenameTool has been assigned, disable the target location (but how,
the user still might want to copy the files in there, or he might not ;-), hard
to tell without further options).
So as you can see, I'm not really sure what to do here.
Keep the RenameTool (already in trunk, but deactivated), remove it again, if
not, how to actually use it?
As I said before, renaming should actually be done in AlbumUI (bug 207053), the
rest is a bonus for BQM, but not the main renaming method.
What do you think?
And what solutions could you imagine here?
