App names

When dealing with applications (application bundles) by name or path,
in Cocoa, when does it make a difference whether you use
App Name.app
example:
Front Row.app
or:
/Applications/Front Row.app

versus
App Name
example:
Front Row
or:
/Applications/Front Row


This seems to be pretty important, and I'm curious when and to what degree I should be cautious about the naming used in code.
At this time I am mainly concerned about Apple apps themselves that should normally be in the system.


Subsequently, is there any difference concerning 10.3 / 10.4 / 10.5 ?
