commit c3e17c46dda32738186f7f45b8d615775309d9fd
Author: Sebastian Rasmussen <sebras hotmail com>

Use <file> to tag parts of filenames
Consistency is good and while the previous patch archieved this
it unfortunately settled on the wrong tag to use for identifying
parts of file names. In this case <file> ought to be used as
<key> is reserved for keystrokes and keyboard shortcuts.
