I'm at a loss as to why MLCad behaves that way. Having written LDView, I think I'd have to add extra code in order to get it to not recognize contained files that weren't .ldr/.dat.

I also would not call it illegal, and have no idea why MLCad cares how submodels are named. I had to add extra code in Bricksmith to force all submodel names to end in .ldr just to make MLCad happy, and then more extra code to hide those ugly internal extensions from the user.
