I would like very much the MR could automatically generate the image name based on parameters. Not just PC name and (optionally) main OS name, but the user-defined type of backup too.

For instance something along the lines of
"AsusPC-Win81-2012-06-01-complete_image-00-00.mrimg"
or
"DellPC-Ubuntu-2013-10-01-disk2_image-00-00.mrimg"
or
"Notebook-2010-12-02-datapartition_image-00-00.mrimg"


Current image IDs are pretty unhelpful.

Also, the original file creation date may be lost when you copy an image file (well, I use XXCOPY for important copy operations, just not to lose that kind of info).

Besides, the date in the name would be the date of the first backup even for incremental backups, while the creation file date changes.
