But if you don't add it then .svn files will be uploaded. But I don't like 
it if I find version control files in my typo3conf/ext directories.

IMHO ext mgm should ignore all files starting with a dot. And I see no 
reason why I want to ship .htaccess in the extension itself. If the admin 
needs one he should create one. On windows it would be fine if the ext. mgm 
could detect the hidden flag, but I'm not sure if there is a PHP api for this.

But having a flag that adds file names to the ignore list is fine. But why 
on an extension level? I'd think that one list for an installation should 
be enough.
