Like to have the ability to have the renamed file be a soft link back to the original file.
i.e. end result would be
tv/myAwesomeFilename.mkv --> staged/myCrappyFilename.mkv

I've been using hardlinks. I do cp -l staged/myCrappyFilename.mkv tv/ to create a hard link to where I want the file, and then tvnamer tv/myCrappyFilename.mkv to clean up the filename.

Actually, it looks like soft links may already be implemented. I found an option for it in the config defaults.

Some functionality was implemented in PR #59. You can also see this request in #46 and #136
