Description
when uploading/downloading/copying files the original names are used in the destination path and if the action fails, the files appear to have been copied and you are unable to tell which files were actioned correctly. If I action 100 files and something occurs during this processing, it is not a good outcome.
I recommend that each file have a name of {originalname}.partial until the action is complete and then remove the .partial extension. A user can then be sure the file has been actioned correctly, any .partial files remaining indicate a failure that can then be corrected.

Start by tracing the upload, download, and copy workflows described in the issue and how destination filenames are chosen. Done means in-progress files use the proposed .partial suffix, completed files lose it, and leftover partial files clearly identify interrupted actions.
