This is an interesting problem that the guide's author probably didn't think of! I'm definitely in favour of renaming these files as a short-term solution. I suggest that the best long-term solution is to add a directory-like feature to Transifex. After all, if authors think a hierarchic information strategy is useful, then translators would probably also think it's useful. Another issue: according to the bug Jérôme opened, it looks like Florian Weimer is the guide owner, but I don't see it in the guides table.[0] So what's going on here? Either way, I'd be happy to help rename files, unless anybody objects.
