Perhaps the list of known types is not fully updated. It builds  
dynamically anyway, and takes quite a long time for me. Also, the  
type "BibTeX" is not from BibDesk, I guess it is declared by a tex  
editor. So probably it's not declared explicitly as a Spotlight type  
either. So that means also "BibDesk Item" should work. Anyway, /If/  
you can search for the type, that's the type. If that does not work,  
you can't. I failed to test this, as Finder's search sucks big time  
(the only thing I can get out of it is a long beach ball).
