wget2 | Plugin Wanted: Links to files downloaded should be replaced with

Walter Tautz created an issue: https://gitlab.com/gnuwget/wget2/-/issues/621



Typically we have something like <a href="URL">What does this link refer to 
</a> and if URL is something like 
http[s]:/site/dir/something_non_informative.pdf but has a informative 
description like, say, 

"Ph.D. thesis on algebraic sheaves on stacks of finite type over characteristic 
p",

then wget2 could put in a softlink to 'something_non_informative.pdf' with this 
description field, or perhaps a hard link within the same directory. 

Reason: I would like to do a file search that finds this more informative title 
of a non-descriptive filename. Perhaps would could also put these links into a 
separate directory trees with the authors name. Basically make the renaming or 
linking much more configurable.
