[plt-dev] I am not using .rkt files yet...

IIUC, .rkt is the default extension for module paths like (require
planet/..../drscheme/dracula-state), ie those that do not have quotes.

Then there is some magic munging that goes on whereby a .ss file in
the place where a .rkt file is expected happens. I recall that
Matthew, Matthias, Eli and I had a long discussion on the best way to
accommodate such paths and this seems to be the best option. Matthew
probably remembers more, since he seems to have implemented it
recently.
