Comment:

 Ok, so the issue here is that we create dotted files on the USB-Stick. On
 Linux or OSX those will not be displayed.

 I think we have two options:

 a) setting the title (filename) to _('Untitled') when copying (translated
 to not loose that information)

 b) display an Alert when we try to copy a file without title (similar
 alert like we do when copying an entry without a file)

 For 10.1.3 (a) is ok even so we have a string but it exists already. (b)
 would involve a new string as well (the error message). I think we could
 still live it as this case is rather unusual. In the Journal you can
 change the title to '' only in the detail view. And you can do so in the
 Activity.
