Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the create and rename flows in the Sublime Text plugin, then clarify the date/time format and how the default-name option should be configured; done means both flows apply the agreed naming behavior.

Description

enhancement

Hi, one of the use cases I encountered is that we take down raw notes in a new sublime tab but then these tabs are cluttered with very less visibility about when they were created.

Therefore, it would be great if we could add the default file name option as well while creating or renaming the file.
