Well perhaps it's not violating the SOP, then. I always just left them the
same, but it's been some 10+ years since I was actively working on module
development on any large scale. I've mostly contributed in code,
documentation, release, and abraisively worded emails on the mailing list
since then. I just installed a random module from CrossWire and it does use
its own filenames as you suggest. So feel free to name it how you wish -
just make sure that the filename (minus the extensions) matches the last
component of the DataPath entry in the module's config file.
