Description

### What would you like to happen?

Every time you edit the path in a pipeline or workflow executor transformation, it prompts you to rename it to match the file. When you're not using this logic, it's annoying every time; it would be great to add an option to disable this behavior.

Research direction

Start by locating the pipeline and workflow executor transformations and trace where editing the execution path triggers the rename prompt. Add an option that disables this behavior, then verify that path edits no longer request a name change when the option is enabled.
