I don't see where you're getting that.  It's not tricky to do at all.  
QuickTime Player, for instance, can open pretty much every media 
filetype, regardless of whether they are associated with other apps or 
not, either from the Open menu, or by dragging the file onto the 
QuickTime Player icon.  (This drag-and-drop file opening is especially 
convenient with a launcher/dock app like DragThing.)  All without 
messing with the file extension.  Macs have no problem opening 
documents in whatever application you specify (so long as the 
application is capable of handling that filetype).
