Saying that this brings nothing and that there's no reason for it is pure ignorance.
You do realize that if you build or deploy on windows that this naming convention is blissfully ignored? Which makes the convention not cross-platform which in turn, i would say, is more akin to pure ignorance. But whatever, it's a small, sad and pathetic patch to make this work as it should.
Yes, I do realize that. You however don't realize that it is the convention that allows cross-platform operation.
Would you still complain if you had named your files in tHiS pAtTeRn on Windows and then it doesn't work on UNIX-bases OSes? If you're a reasonable person - you wouldn't, but if you insist that having a single convention is bad - it's really the same thing.
What's sad and pathethic is that you've spent your whole day ranting about this instead of writing a small script to rename your files. Especially if you're willing to patch the Loader instead, which I can only hope you're actually overriding via MY_Loader instead of monkey-patching.
