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.
