This is veering a bit off-topic for this mailing list, but I'd be
curious to hear what alternatives you would suggest.
The way classic MacOS handled it was much better. The file type

saw or changed.
The file type info is still available in MacOSX, but Apple
seems to be discouraging its use, which is disappointing.
