+==== PDF naming conventions ====
   * Externally, PDFs are listed simply as "PDF" (whether v3 or otherwise).
   * Internally, the db holds "v3PDF" to mean v3 output; "PDF" is used for pre-v3.
   * As before, .txt.pdf files are not listed in index files.

+==== TEXT naming conventions ====
   * Externally, .txt format (whether pre-v3 or not) is listed as "TEXT".\\ Exception: rfc-index.xml: will display "ASCII" (for pre-v3) and "TEXT" (afterwards). Rationale: other index files were already using the "TEXT" instead of "ASCII", so they weren't changed to start differentiating.
