This happens 10s of times per day for me when reading/managing papers.
Fortunately addressing this particular annoyance seems to be the goal of
the 'Document Centric GNOME' additions for matching open files back to
the file system.

All of this has been discussed on ddl and live.gnome.org very recently
(and to be honest I'm not convinced anyone in a position to change
things reads or cares about this list)

So I think, at least this case, it is being handled.
