Use project name for project folder question #1573

In the WebDAV access, when I select the "Use project name for project folder" option, the file listing shows the project's name as the folder name, but it also adds a number that I suspect is the project ID. Is it possible to remove this number?

The reason of the project's IDs prefix is that projects' names, unlike projects' identifiers, are not unique. You can have, for example, two projects called "A". How would you display two "A" folders via WebDAV?

@picman, thanks for your answer and effort in keeping this plugin working.

Regarding your question, yes, several Projects can have the same name. I'm using sub-projects as sub-folders, and I know this is not the only use case. While, in my case, it is uncommon for two projects or sub-projects at the same depth of the structure to have identical names, it could happen. Perhaps an option would be to use IDs + names only when two projects share the same name?

Currently, I'm using project identifiers as folder names, but I would like to use names instead, as they are more versatile than project identifiers (you can use accented characters, capital letters, spaces or change names). However, in my opinion, IDs + names do not look natural.

Thank you again for your help.
