No. The converter plugins don't work with file extensions at all. The
look at the file contents. But this should be even better. Look at
AudioFileFormat.cpp how it uses the classes to detect audio. Later, when
the plugins are real plugins which are dynamically loaded, we cannot use
a hard coded class list but the code in AudioFileFormat is a good
example.
