Describe the bug
When doing a batch rename on a file, some of the images are renamed in the Markdown document but not in the attachments folder. The physical attachment or image file is never renamed. Once this occurs, there's no way to easily reconstruct the document with the accurate image as there's no link between the original image name and what the image name changes to in the Markdown document.
