Option to prepend Project-Name to beginning of media recording filenames.
Please

Hi,

I would like recorded audio files to have the name of the project at the beginning of the audio filename.

The "Filename format for recorded files:" option in Recording Settings only provides things like "Tracknumber-Trackname-Timestamp[xx].wav",
but not "Projectname-Tracknumber-Trackname-Timestamp[xx].wav", etc.

Please provide the option as a checkbox so that it prepends the Project-Name before the rest of the filename which is picked with the "Filename format for recorded audio files" setting.

The reason I want this is because when I am searching on my drive, looking at files in a folder of audio files that had 2 projects mixed -- 2 forked versions of a project perhaps, or working with a bunch of audio files in external editors, etc, I do not want to see "22-vv1-130124_1804-01.wav" because that is too confusing and I can't tell which project the files are from visually. I just want the visual indicator on the filename.

Thank you.
