I find this a useful feature in general, but I believe it not working on 
Windows completely nullifies the "could even provide more context for 
software processing such files" argument in favor of this feature. It 
will be unexpected for users if their code completely fails to work on 
Windows, because the suffix is ignored.

For that reason I voted "no".
