You don't register .foo.bar, you register .bar. Then .foo.bar files 
are opened with the app associated with .bar. For Ogg Vorbis, 
respectively, you would register .vorbis with WinAmp and .video with -
whatever-. .ogg.vorbis files would be opened with WinAmp and 
.ogg.video with -whatever-. Of course, ijaegrz.vorbis files would 
also be opened with WinAmp.

Yup, you can set up a trial & error list this way. If it doesn't open 
when you left-click it, right-click it and choose "Open with 
Video..". I wouldn't call this a very user-friendly solution.

I don't, for the reasons I stated.
