Comment (by dd32):

 > I still see no reason for using a random string.

 I can't see a need for it either, lets just use `wp_unique_filename()`
 here, in most cases it'll not conflict with anything and be used straight
 up - but in the event another plugin has created the file, or the user
 uploaded a conflicting name, it'll cause it to not overwrite something
 that exists already. `-pdf2.jpg` would work fine - afterall the filename
 will be stored in the DB, no code in core is ever going to base decisions
 off the filesystem alone.
