If you apply that logic in other contexts, things would get very
verbose. For example, if you grab a snippet of Java code and send it
to someone, they might not immediately know if it was Java or
JavaScript or C++ or ... You wouldn't want to prefix each use of the
"if" keyword with a something to indicate the programming language.
In this particular case I think the potential for confusion is greatly
minimized having the snippet appear in a posting on this mailing list
or in a file with a ".mxml" file extension.
