Things got quite strange.

The best option I've come up with so far is: when registering an htmlize hook, add a new optional paramter 'keep_extension'. This would make a source file of `hello.c` generate a page with name `hello.c` rather than the current `hello`. This would keep the pages unique (until someone makes `hello.c.mdwn`...).
