> .ogm - Anything with video

I don't think the developers will bless *anything* involving ogm.  My 
understanding is that it's an unsupported hack which they merely tolerate 
because it's simpler than actively opposing it.

I'd recommend that you not include the letters "ogm" in anything you forward 
to the developers as a suggestion.

But that's merely my non-official, non-insider feeling.  The truth may vary.
