Okay, I commited it.  Non-thinking people may still be able to confuse 
themself while messing the the names, but it's pretty straightforward for 
everybody else.

If you rename the item using the Rename feature, then both the filename and 
the Name field is updated.

If you use the Properties dialog, then only the field that you changed will 
change (either Name or filename, depending on which you selected in the 
dialog)

If you try to give an item the same name as an existing item using the Rename 
feature, then the Name will be updated but you will be given a choice to 
overwrite, skip, etc on the filename.  If you cancel that dialog, then only 
the Name is updated.

If you change the filename of the item using Konqueror.. well, KDesktop 
doesn't care.  It will continue to use the Name field.
