A distinct possibility.  Does wget always believe the server?  If so,
then I was hoping I could make it a little more skeptical and
actually sniff the file contents before applying the .html extension.

If i'ts already that skeptical then I can't explain the behavior I was
seeing.

This is a wishlist item, feel free to shelve if you don't find it
interesting.  :)

Thanks for the reply!
