Some [class@Gimp.
LoadProcedure] or [class@Gimp.ExportProcedure] may actually be a *meta* procedure. Meta procedures are typically supporting container formats which will call another procedure for the actual format within the container.
Note that you should still call [method@FileProcedure.set_extensions], usually with a list of standard full formats, such as
"xcf.gz,xcfgz", or again "hgt.zip". Nevertheless the meta_extensions should be only "gz" or "zip" respectively. This would
allow this meta format to work even on less common combinations. For instance, I could export an image as "png.gz" even though it is not
explicitly listed.
