With Bangle.js we've really started to use the Storage library, and I can't help thinking that the 8 character filename limit is making things needlessly fiddly.
Currently each Storage file has a 16 byte header, of which 8 bytes are filename.
What does everyone think about increasing the header size to 32 bytes, and moving to 24 byte filenames?
We could then ditch the annoying '-/=/+/etc' in front of filenames on Bangle.js and switch to using normal file extensions.
