For example, I have a case where a file actually named PC074941_0.jpg appears in the view listing as PC074941.jpg, and this is not helpful. The view correctly links to the proper file.
I see that this is because in the data table 'file_managed' the name of the file is recorded as PC074941.jpg and its URI as public://frontpageimages/PC074941_0.jpg
This situation arises when uploading a file that has an already used name. The upload process has added the suffix _0 in the URI but has not modified the name. Surely it would be more helpful if it were to modify the name as well?
