Count me as one of those who find a "rename buffer and file" command
useful. I've had one of those bound to "C-c r" for a very long time,
and I consider it convenient to be able to do this directly from the
buffer in question, rather than going to dired.

I'd certainly find it annoying if C-x C-w added an extra prompt.
