Why does code coverage report use "." in folder names?

Answered

It's a bit of a pain that the built-in code coverage report generates with folders ".css", ".img", ".classes". Why? When I upload that to my site on Linux the pages don't work because Unix hides files/folders starting with "."

Is this a bug? It seems like the report generated should use normal folder names.

Currently my work-around is to always remember to use refactor -> rename to fix that.

Can you describe your use case in a bit more detail? How/where do you open the folders?

I upload my code coverage report to my web site for my project so people can check how much code coverage I have but because of the folders starting with a dot, the web pages don't work on unix machines.  I need to manually refactor the names for the coverage to display correctly.

I would request a bug report to fix that in a future release. Thanks!
