- They'd be grouped together in a filename-sorted directory listing - Makes it easier to identify them as a particular type of file. ie. config files
Also, under Apache it is possible to restrict access to certain files based on pattern matches on the filename, so if they contained sensitive information, or something sinmilar, then you could stop the public from accessing them (probably better to use a CF mapping for this though (if you have the ability to add mappings, that is :) )). -- Lindsay Evans.
