So, just to clarify whether I understood you well, you want this:

    /
    `- foo.html
    `- bar.html

Instead of this:

    /
    `- foo/
       `- index.html
    `- bar/
       `- index.html

Right?

Not to the best of my knowledge.

It shouldn't take more than a week, roughly, to someone who is not
familiarized with the code and doesn't work on wget full-time.

The best way of estimating how this could be done, is to do it yourself
and then share your patch with us. That way, you also provide the
community with something tangible, and we can more easily evaluate
whether we want that feature in wget.
