Bert,

yes, you are right. It's not required, and the ADL Workbench and Ocean 
Template Designer don't care about the file name. It's a straightforward 
matter for all tools to remove this restriction (it means running a 
micro-parser across all the files to read the first line or few lines, 
so that an explorer / browser widget can be populated).
