I believe that's correct: the Mach-O bundle format is independent of the
framework used to develop the application.
In older OS X apps you could identify Cocoa apps by the presence of
*.nib (NeXTstep Interface Builder) files in the Resources folder inside
the bundle. But with more recent Cocoa apps I believe you'll find a
file named "CodeResources" just inside the bundle.
With the long history of the Rev code base and its multi-platform
nature, I doubt it's being built with the Cocoa framework.
