That's not possible:

* With merged versions, you don't know, what has been merged, so don't 
know, if they're still needed (they just start with merged-*hash*) - you 
can have diffent merged CSS/JS files
* With filename-*hash* you just know the file name, but not the full 
path. So may be we have two files with the same name in different 
directories

Because of the hash changes, when the filesizes/mtimes changes, it says 
nothing.

Kind regards
Steffen
