descript.ion not updated when files are renamed

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

The descript.ion file is not updated when files are renamed as in previous versions.

Not confirmed so the questions are:
- Which Version of TC
- Which OS?
- How did you rename the file? one or multiple?

Is Options > Operation > File comments > "Copy comments with files" enabled?

Not confirmed.

Make sure to check the following option:
Menu Configuration - Options - Operation - File comments:
[x] Copy comments with files

the name of that setting is very "strange" if this needs to be enabled for renaming :?:

The setting is for every aspect of managing comments, be it copy, rename, delete, synchronize files etc. Maybe "Automatically manage comments with files" would be more appropriate. I rarely use descript.ion files and/or comments, so I can't really add much in that regard.
