As to the usefulness of current behavior, the only supposed use-case code posted, that I have noticed, was that it made it easy to turn '.emacs' into '1.emacs', but then MK said the app does not really do that.

I said the name ".emacs" was used as an example. For that matter, the name "a.txt" was also used as an example. The use cases are real.
