I'm not suggesting for a moment that azw3 will replace mobi in the near (whatever that means) future. And if we do start providing azw3 ebooks as well as mobi ebooks it will be a trivial task to put something up like bookname.mobi (for Kindle 3) and bookname.azw3 (for Kindle Touch and Kindle File).

Part of the reason for my initial query was to ensure that there would be minimal confusion for users of the MobileRead library.
