SW 2007 Rename
(OP)
In case you haven't noticed, you can now safely rename a SW file in Windows Explorer 2007 and keep its links. Right-click a file > Solidworks > Rename

After picking a file, it will automatically search the folder for drawings "where used" similar to SW Explorer 2007:

This will automatically find all files for that particular project and keep the links. We installed SW07, but are still using SW06.
SW06 SP5.0

Never argue with an idiot. They'll bring you down to their level and beat you with experience every time.

You will see a few options for grabbing the required files, such as simply copying them to another folder, or zipping them. Also has an option to add prefix or suffix.
