just a cosmetic but nonetheless an improvement request. we have a jungle of
options already which grows kind of wildly .. the new options might fit in more
structured when named like
--file-prefix-manifest
--file-prefix-...
as manifest and archive are written out words you might consider doing the same
with signature.

Hello!
Please see attached for a patch that adds command line options to use
different prefixes for manifest/sig/archive files.
--manifest-file-prefix
--sig-file-prefix
--archive-file-prefix
This is useful, for example, when backing up to an Amazon S3 bucket with
life cycle rules to move archives to Glacier.
We can only move archives and not manifest files, because Duplicity
downloads manifest files on every incremental backup.
Life cycle rules can only match prefixes, not suffixes, which is a little
stupid, but otherwise S3 + Glacier is a very attractive backup destination.
I do agree it makes more sense to fix it on the Amazon side (making life
cycle rules more flexible), but there's not much we can do about that.
PS. Someone has figured out an alternative workaround, but it's not very safe:
