I'd prefer to keep the .mp3 extension since it _is_ an .mp3 file
after all. No need for an additional cryptic extension here, and
it should make no difference in excluding it from playlist
generation anyways, because its name is always ".dirname.mp3"

In Rockbox itself it is hidden anyway unless you set "show
files" to "all", and if some dumb program on the PC doesn't let
you exclude it by name, it could help to set the "hidden" file
attribute additionally.

Regards, Jens
