Option to disable renaming files uploaded with File Requests
Can we please have an option to disable the renaming of files?
Renaming files can have catastrophic effects on dependent files. If I have an InDesign file with dependent files in the Links folder and the filenames don't match what the main document expects, then it won't find them. Each file will need to be manually renamed to make things work again, and if there are hundreds of links... well you get the idea.
I'm sure InDesign isn't the only programme that has dependent files. The same can happen with linked files in Photoshop, Illustrator and likely countless other apps.

I'd also like to add that folder structures MUST be maintained as well. This is absolutely essential for transferring video files. The sizes of these files makes zipping up first impractical.
Dropbox Transfer is a really good idea but the implementation is just completely flawed. Until it's sorted I'll continue paying MASV.io and WeTransfer for the same service.

This has been a problem for me. This 'auto rename' thing is crazy and should be changed.

PLEASE provide an option to disable this. It is absolutely infuriating. I'm a casting director and routinely use Dropbox File Requests to source hundreds of actors' auditions for my casting clients, and it's absolutely awful (and makes me look bad) that no matter what naming convention they'd like auditions to be submitted under, the files automatically get renamed! Why did anyone think auto-renaming would be helpful??
It's so bad I'm contemplating ending my subscription and moving to another service. Please change this.
