      Change description of "name" to "file name without extension"

      Change description of "name" to "file name without extension"

      Description

      The value 'name' for displaying the filename without the extension is misleading. name-and-extension would be interpreted as being equal to name by many people. At least, the description should say that name means 'name-without-extension'. Ideally, name would mean name-and-extension.

      <text:file-name>
      The text:display attribute specifies how much of the file name to display.
      The defined values for the text:display attribute are:
      full: full file name, extension and file path.
      path: file path only.
      name: file name only.
      name-and-extension: file name and extension.
      The filename may be an IRI, either because an IRI has been used to retrieve the file, or the implementation internally uses IRIs and therefore converts system specific paths into an IRI. If this is the case, and if the path, the name or the extension cannot be evaluated from the IRI, then the IRI should be displayed unmodified.

          We certainly can amend the description of "name " so that it gets clearer that it is the name without extensions. But we cannot change the attribute of the value itself since this does introduce a backward compatibility issue.
