In MkII, not MkIV :)

My preference is for \savebuffer[...][filename] to write contents in 
filename. No funny prefix or suffix.

If you have to add prefix and suffixes, please make it configurable (like 
\bufferprefix and \f!temporaryfilenameextension in MkII). With the current 
MkIV implementation, I cannot directly write the buffer to a file in 
another directory. Of course, I can work around using file.move, but that 
is adding one extra step.
