As to the file name suffix point . Many insisted (Mostly Microsoft and
Microsoft application developers) that iCal define a file extension.

And as I have noticed that MANY implementations store ICS files without
their text/calendar MIME header. I suspect many will for xCAL. So
without a MIME type in the file, many data typing engines would fail
if it were not for a file name suffix.

So xCal has a file extension. I do not care what it is.
And I do not care how many 'dots' are in the file name as
long as the OS's and their applications allow for it.

It is supported by some POSIX (UNIX, Linux, BSD, and newer
Mac) applications, but not those OS's.

In fact on those POSIX OS's the 'dot' means nothing at all
and it is simply another character in the file name that can
have zero to many 'dot's in the file name.

Cameron - Question: Can the windows registry handle multiple DOTs
in suffixes to files on what ever are the top most Windows
versions in use?

My VERY LIMITED knowledge and testing says no, but I might not
know what I am doing as I use POSIX systems for almost everything.
