I completely agree: TOOWTDI.
For me, .App. just looks like an error. It's close enough to Python
to be familiar, but far enough to be jarring. .App+ at least harkens
to regular expressions, or shell globbing, etc. and at the very least,
doesn't look like broken Python.
BTW, my first suggestion was .App... (ellipsis) but Jim hated that. ;)
