Hi,

imho the new naming convention suggested by Peter Lebbing is more obvious and
has the advantage to remain compatible with old HowTos.

Also, I personally believe there is no harm in building building both versions
by default. This also seems to me the more common case that users want the
image with vid & pid included, so it would be nice to have this case covered by
default.

Kind regards,
Marian
