Since autocompile uses .gtex as the default extension, that is a reason
not to use the extension for scores. I've been writing scripts that
automatically delete all the .gtex files at the end of processing, on
the assumption that they are disposable.

I concur with changing the default to .gtex for the folling reasons:
- Autocompile uses it as the default extension.
- Differentiates a score from a regular tex file.
- Makes it easier for a power user to filter a directory. I
typically don't want to open a score file for manual editing, thus I
don't want it to show up in a list of files to open.
In my thinking gregoriotex files should be considered volatile, and
overwriting them is always safe. Blindly running `gregorio score.gabc`
should not clobber a .tex file. Of course there are the cases of having
a modified gregoriotex file to do things that cannot be done normally.
Also I do not follow the naming scheme of *-main.tex for the main
project files. Mostly because I usually don't work with individual
scores, but I have multi score projects.
