I think the complaint is not the FILE name, but that you cannot do the
following:

rpm -q kernel-module-ntfs

That means to do an "rpm -qi" of the NTFS module, I first have to "rpm -qa |
grep kernel-module-ntfs" and that is kind of klunky. The rpm FILE name is fine
and perfect, but it would be very helpful if "rpm -q kernel-module-ntfs" would
list all versions of this RPM that are installed.

Does the naming standard you refer to actually require that the kernel version
be part of the internal name as well?  The current naming scheme does not allow
you to upgrade unless a new version of this module is released for a kernel
that it was already released for.  But if you upgrade your kernel, you cannot
then upgrade this module.  You have to install a new version from scratch.
