.fmt files missing in speedbar

[jm@pub.pink]

In emacs -Q I evaluate:

    (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.fmt\\'" . html-mode))
    (setq
     speedbar-directory-unshown-regexp "^\(\.\.*$\)\'"
     speedbar-show-unknown-files t)

but browsing a directory in the speedbar containing ‘file.fmt’ files
appears empty. Changing the extension to ‘.FMT’ makes it appear. In fact
I cannot find any other extension that causes a file to not appear; e.g.
‘.file.ext’, ‘file.bonkers’, ‘file.♑’, etc. all show up.

What am I missing here?
