Hi there, The reason why I would want to change it is for esthethic reasons, and "Human Interaction/Usability" reasons. For example, people who use windows expect certain things like extensions being only three letters ".txt", ".xls", ".doc", etc . This current extension of "*.h2.db", is very alien to a windows user.
Also in this way one can customize the meaning of the database file based on the business logic of the application. For example, the application may be about utility information(Electric, Natural gas, Water), so hence you can call it ".udb" for utility database or ".edb" for energy database. This gives more meaning to a person, when you are using h2 and going to make an application with say two database files, sure they have names but to customize it further via the extension makes it even more meaningful. So that is the reason.
