Hi David,
as far as I know, RFC 4288 indicates:
[[
4.11. Additional Information
Various sorts of optional information SHOULD be included in the
specification of a media type if it is available:
[...]
o File name extension(s) commonly used on one or more platforms to
indicate that some file contains a given media type.
o Mac OS File Type code(s) (4 octets) used to label files containing
a given media type.
]]

So, I don't mind one way or another, but it seems to me RFC 4288 needs
to be updated if we're going to drop the usage.
Philippe
