Description

Again here we see lots of files with only UUID flienames. I think there should be a single config flie per "identity", and all settings should be user-modifiable in a normal text editor, except for the passwords.

Resources, Account and Identities are identified by UUID's, so that's the only unique identifier we have and thus a reasonable choice for the filename IMO.

Some hierarchy may make sense to i.e. group all config files of an account.

The ini files are editable with a text editor.

Kube allows the user to name the identity, so why not use that as the filename?

Because it's not guaranteed to be unique or stable.
