I think this is too smart. Just imagine that you have 99 images
embedded in a web page. Now add a single image, rerun lilypond, and
suddenly you have to correct all image names to add another leading
zero.

Actually, the normal user shouldn't be bothered at all with that
template! I favor that the default is either `<name>-page%d' or
`<name>-page-%d' to accomodate an arbitrary number of images. Whoever
is going to modify that has certainly enough knowledge to fiddle with
the necessary coding.
