New Issue was created.

Issue 438: https://gitlab.com/gnuwget/wget2/issues/438
Author:    Rohan Fletcher
Assignee:  

>From docs:

> ### `--convert-file-only` \[Not implemented yet\]
> 
> This option converts only the filename part of the URLs, leaving the rest of 
> the URLs untouched. This filename part is sometimes referred to as the 
> "basename", although we avoid that term here in order not to cause confusion.
> 
> It works particularly well in conjunction with `--adjust-extension`, although 
> this coupling is not enforced. It proves useful to populate Internet caches 
> with files downloaded from different hosts.
> 
> Example: if some link points to //foo.com/bar.cgi?xyz with --adjust-extension 
> asserted and its local destination is intended to be 
> ./foo.com/bar.cgi?xyz.css, then the link would be converted to 
> //foo.com/bar.cgi?xyz.css. Note that only the filename part has been 
> modified. The rest of the URL has been left untouched, including the net path 
> ("//") which would otherwise be processed by Wget2 and converted to the 
> effective scheme (ie. "https://";).
