Update placed image layer name when new image replaces
Currently (v30) when an image is dropped into an artboard or placed in a shape it will name the layer with the image file name. It does not change the layer name if that image is replaced.
It would be helpful to have an option to enable the layer to be automatically renamed to the new filename instead of just inheriting the current layer name.
I know there are issues (mostly related to auto-animate) but would be handy as a toggle or check either in preferences (what preferences right?) or as a modal check option on drop.

When replacing an image the name of the image in the layers panel should also update.

I have found when you replace and image that the name of the file doesn't update to the new file you are replacing the current file with. This is pretty annoying to have to rename and not to mention having to rename something that you just replaced in a frame or mask is just more work then needs to be done. Also when placing psd files retaining the file name would be great too.
