I love the idea of an extensible binary format. Good work.

The extension .osg would be the appropriate thing for a native .osg format. An appropriate header could say which version of is represented in the file. Perhaps a .osgb could be used for a binary if needed.
I'd recommend using a new unique extension for a new format, unless someone wants to take responsibility to fix OSG's plugin mechanism so that it is more robust in the presence of different formats using the same extension. See the thread "Plugin extension registry" from last June for a summary of the issue.
Both ".osg" and ".osgb" are presently in use (".osgb" is the file format used by the osgBullet project at Google Code).
