Auto-Rename to match expected. (Mods)

First time trying to run Factorio after updating to 0.10.8, I've had to rename every mod folder (the .zip's), no matter if I had changed them previously or not.

My suggestion is that the game gives you an option to automatically rename it; (file name of a mod's .zip), to match what the game expects. Probably a button to match current discrepancy, and one to match all.

Seriously, this was kinda irritating. Thank you for your time.

Hm. As I now know the current development situation (talked a lot with Tomas today) I would suggest instead, that someone tries to write a simple program, which does that renaming.

If it would be only linux/mac this would be easy just to write a bash-script. But for windows...
