Why GPG doesn't use filename inside encrypted file?

I encrypted some-file. some-file.gpg was produced.
$ gpg -e some-file
When I list packets I see:
:literal data packet:
mode b, created 1082433628, name="some-file",
raw data: 9371 bytes
I renamed some-file.gpg to data.gpg. Now when I decrypt data.gpg with
--decrypt-file or without options output file goes to ./data. (I do
not use --decrypt because output goes to stdout if I do not specify
output file explicitely).
How can I decrypt file so that original name of file is restored
automatically?
[ib@ ~]$ gpg --version
gpg (GnuPG) 1.3.5
