Let us rename the RAW file in the smart object, that's it!

I've spent hours chatting with adobe agents on this subject with no result on what should be a relatively simple function. The smart object is not linked so I should be able to name it whatever I want without consequences to my work and/or workflow. thanks

It worked for me (export contents with new name, replace contents, no need to change embedded to linked) – as in the embedded filename changed.
