Naming of log file

Hate to bother on a Sunday morning about this little thing, but I've not noticed this before, and am anal as hell so here goes. I like to index a .h264 file, re-encode it, then index the re-encoding itself, using VDub to double-check that my chapter marks have been set correctly, before tsMuxeR-ing to BD format. I noticed this about DGAVCIndexNV log files, when working inside a single directory:

1. Open video1.h264, Save Project as video1.dga, get video1.log from DGAVCIndexNV

2. Later, open video1.264 (output/result) and Save project as test.dga, to distinguish from the original video1.dga, but this overwrites original video1.log with a new video1.log, thus losing the original logfile

I'da thunk the log output would match the Save Project name, not the name of the video that I opened. No big deal, but I like to save all log files...
