I change the prefix to PL for PLA and PE for PETG. Otherwise you wouldn't know what material the gcode was created for.
We also have different sized/branded printers, so each printer also needs a character to identify it. Therefore a customisable prefix for each printer with flexibility in number of characters would be ideal. Then I could have for example FPL for Flashforge PLA, WPE for Wanhao PETG etc.

Uh huh, there's other issues with file names (which aren't getting any attention, literally not ONE response so I don't even know if I'm the only person it is happening to). Ensuring the file name and the only model on the bed match seems like a good place to start.
I very much support GhostKeeper's wildcard strategy. I thought it would be too big to implement compared to a single blank where you type in what you want, but hey, if you can make it happen that rocks!
