No, this is not limited to the client. This is mostly used server side 
to map the archive name extension to the server archive name extension 
(.blob, .fidx, .didx).

The current mappings were already enforced/assumed by the server to some 
extend, and other archive types must use the full server archive name 
extension anyways, for the server to recognize it.

For community implementations: they will be affected by this as well, 
but they would already have need to pass the full server archive name 
extensions anyways. So this should not break anything for them.
