Hi Alistair,

First, I confirm that my code was changed to use #basenameWithoutExtension, this will avoid problems until this issue is completely solved.

For the rest I disagree, because the #base method does not make any sense, it has no semantics, it serves no purpose. I think that the #base method should be deprecated and that all the senders of #base should be revised so that they properly use #basenameWithoutExtension.

See for instance the syntax of file names for Microsoft https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms909516.aspx, or on Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filename, there is no such "base" concept defined there.

Cheers,
Michel
