Indeed, I was pondering something such as this today after Paul  
mentioned the issue.

However, given that file-types and creator-codes are being phased out  
in OS X it would be worth seeing if we could provide some greater  
support and ease of integration with UTIs - which would then (as a  
result) provide support for the legacy MacOS file identification  
methods.

Warmest Regards,

Mark.
