Then what makes an Extension with IsFMVOnly=1 different from and FMVOnlyExtesion? I believe this will create more confusion. As I explained we don't want any extension to be of AEK_NONE type, in order to be able to express dependencies.

Do you want to rename the FMVOnlyExtesion class into something else making it differ from Extension only for not having a TargetFeatureName?
