In need of a "Rename snippet" button #48

Hi, Before all, many thanks for your great job with this plugin. It really saves a tons of time!

An annoying issue I found, is that I can't easily rename the snippets once I create them. If I change their name in the editor with the edit button it finishes creating a new one, so I have to delete the old duplicate.

Could you consider inserting a Rename button in the plugin?

Of course, the better solution would be a rename button and a batch renamer with some options to change the prefix or the suffix, or to replace some characters from a list of selected snippets' names, but a simple button would be enough useful.

Thanks for the attention.

PS: related to this, another behavior I find frustrating of FingerText is that it opens up a superflous dialog everytime you save a change. Is there a way to avoid this? I am pretty aware that I am saving the changes, why bore me by saying the obvious?
