That is not an acceptable naming convention because many GNUstep apps 
are not part of the gnustep project. Prefixing the package name of those 
apps with gnustep- leads one to believe (reasonably) that they are part 
of the GNUstep project when they are not. This is why, although I 
strongly dislike both because I think this is a complete non-issue that 
a couple of people have chosen to crusade over, .app is better for 
applications.
