Would have been nice to have this a few years ago when developing a custom VFD 
for Silo.

That said, I am not sure how much more you are offering here if caller has to 
tell HDF5 lib which VFD to do. I mean, if Silo can produce its files with sec2, 
family, multi-part, or custom VFD, thats 4 different vfds I have to try.

Is there much value added in this routine over simply attempting H5Fopen using 
different fapls and taking first that succeeds?

Subject: [Hdf-forum] RFC to replace H5Fis_hdf5 with a new routine

Hi All,

I attached a RFC to deprecate H5Fis_HDF5() and add a new routine to replace it 
named H5Fis_accessible.
Please let me know if you have any comments/questions/opinions.

Thanks,
Mohamad
