disallow card names with handled file endings+solution
Offering/asking to add the card with the name. So trying to add 'blah.html' gets:
Wagn doesn't allow file endings on card names. Shall we add this card as 'blah'?
...with the name field populated with 'blah', and any default content still filled out.
Itching a bit at the idea of totally disallowing a card name. As the handled file endings expand, they will overlap with top level domains, and possibly other terms that people really will want to use for card names.
How about changing it to offer to add the card with the stripped name as decribed above, but having a less prominent link to go ahead and add it with the full name they typed in? (And then when "foo.txt" is requested, giving "foo.txt" if it exists, otherwise looking for "foo".)
disallow -> discourage?

Also, note I added the tag "file types by ending" - anyone got a better term for our new nifty auto-handling of file types via their endings?

As long as we're doing this, we may as well disallow any endings that we're certain we're going to implement. See add file endings generating more file formats,
