This reminds us how important it is to choose a unique Creator Type for 
Mac applications of all flavors (Classic and X.) Assigning a unique 
creator type to each standalone app should prevent this, ehm, feature 
from happening. Don't forget to register your creator type with Apple 
to avoid conflicts with other apps.
