.v+ogg is just a stupid idea. It was only half seriously proposed as far
as i can tell.
I'm in favour of any reasonable extension to differentiate video from
audio, that doesn't include including non alpha-numeric characters into
file extensions.
.v+ogg is not a workable solution. I'm for anything but that.
Zen.
