   2) With "Show All File Extensions" enabled, I get ".app" on all my  
   application bundles. So I have to decide which is worse: extensions  
   on *everything* or extensions on some things. (Notice we get no "Hide  
   All File Extensions" option?)

Hiding file extensions is very dangerous and I recommed that you never do it.

A lot of Windows trojan horses use that mechanism: they create an
executable and call it, say, "foo.doc.exe".  But for users that hide
extensions, it looks like:

        foo.doc

and they assume that it is safe.

Always show all extensions.  Always.
