  Suggestion from Michael (on Joe Glines YouTube Live support 2021-12-24).
  
  This would allow to get a list of path files in the Editor (from a Copy in Explorer), edit the files name and path, then execute the changes (rename or move the files) by using the original paths from a backup taken before editing the files.
  
  See Bulk Rename Utility for renaming ideas

  Hmm.
  Using the editor capabilities of QCE for file path modifications is certainly also one of my use cases.
  However, I am unsure if I would like to see a rename function inside QCE.
  
  So far while working with QCE, I am always on the safe side because QCE does not 'execute' anything in my system.
  It offers me results in the Clipboard which I can then paste somewhere else, maybe even into a renaming tool.
  
  Even a simple rename functionality requires in my eyes at least an 'Undo' function.
  So then we would have 'Undo' for QCE editor and QCE rename?
  And there are almost certainly more implications.
