    So:

    mv ? .''?''.uu

    prepends . and appends .uu to the names of all marked files.

Ok, I agree this does not take away any useful feature.  It would be
an acceptable solution, but it is rather inconvenient to use.
So I would rather use a solution along the lines where ? displays
one way and C-q ? displays another way.
