given a list of file names, classify them for display (the way the Windows explorer works, and similar file managers). They use MIME databases and the like, and if they are unix-ish, they probably reject the current splitext implementation already as incorrect, and have work-arounds.
I know I've written code like this that depends on the current behavior. It's useful to classify e.g. .svn directories or .*rc files by their "extension", so I'm honestly baffled by the idea of wanting to treat such files as not having an extension (as opposed to a possibly-unrecognized one).
