Comment (by jonsurrell):
As of 6.9.4, the original issue seems to be fixed.
Uploading a file like `"css".png` results in a filename like `22css22.png`
on the server and a matching URL. The file remains accessible.
There does seem to be a related issue described in [#comment:9].
`"css".png` becoming `22css22.png` does not seem correct or desirable. I
would expect a result like `css.png` or a similar name on the server.
The main issue is fixed and this ticket can likely be closed since doesn't
seem to have been an issue since WordPress 4.4. However, it would be nice
to open a ticket for the remaining filename issue.
