Doesn't VST do it through branding?  VST is for effects, VSTi for 
instruments (softsynths), etc.?

Perhaps LV2 could do a similar sort of branding... with the name defined 
by the extension.

E.g....

   LV2-fx
   LV2-synth

Bonus points if some manner of logo integration could be done, too.

Standardizing how this is done would make it easier for application 
developers and users to understand.
