In contrast to all existing get*Extension* methods for file (names) in the Platform the new getJavaLikeExtensions() method is containing the '.'. This leads to programming errors when working with extensions in Eclipse:

IFile.getFileExtension() returns 'java' for Foo.java
IFileEditorMapping.getExtension() for the Java editor returns 'java'
BUT:
JavaCore.getJavaLikeExtensions() returns '.java'
