Now that we can roll custom xml based osg file formats, is it worth looking at 
the file-extention alias again?

If I want to create an app (or several apps) based on OSG and I want to 
associate a fileformat with that app I need a unique file extention.
The current system lets you alias a new extention with the osg2 handler, but 
the handler will then reject the file. We could adapt 
addFileExtensionAlias()supportsExtension() to allow the reader/writer to 
specify new extentions for the new extensible handler.

This was discussed last year, but got a bit heated 
(http://forum.openscenegraph.org/viewtopic.php?t=4441) 

Thanks again Wang - and good luck with the book
