Render Files (Movie or Pics) and Automatically Name Them with Certain Parameters/Metadata (include this for *Viewport* Render, too, Plz)
Often, I find myself viewport rendering an animation several times, each time with different subsurf levels, different resolution, etc. to see how much lowering quality I can get away with.
But sometimes I'm like... uh... did I forget to change the file name? It says "150% Resolution", but what if this file name is wrong? How can I trust it?
It'd help if I could type in the Output field's name in Blender as "My Animation %simplify-subsurf-level, %Resolution, %Quality, %IsCavityOnOrOff, %UsingThisMatcap.exr, %fps.avi", and then Blender automatically names the final rendered file (movie or pics) with whatever values I used. Or include this option in metadata stamps notes (including for movie files. P.s. I render animation straight to AVI files. Not as lots of pics).
P.S. please do this for Viewport Render Animation, too. I don't use actual render. Viewport render animation, is faster, and I don't actually use eevee, cycles, textures, etc.

It is a very handy option. I have used a ton a similar token feature in other software. It is very helpful with multiple cameras, frame ranges, etc... Not only for speed but for organize your rendered frames.
