What: Changing the way copy of names are created with three different settings (v. (n), (n), Copy of)

Why Important: Request from users to not just see a line of 'Copy of Copy of Copy of Copy of Copy of Copy of Untitled ___'
when making numerous versions. Mention that it would be "more useful to have the copy system become Untitled ____ (1)/" as an example. Gives users more autonomy and easily changes convention.

I think allowing users to configure this overcomplicates the UI and will likely confuse users for minimal gain. How about we just go with (1), (2), etc?
