Client apps that care about this new file format are going to be very limited
in number.  Servers need to know what the file contains (the reason that a new
extension is really a Good Thing), as do development tools that are used to
create them and manipulate them.  For any other "client", the file format used
to deploy a web app is totally transparent.
