I predict Apple will do something stupid to try and cripple Finder's behaviour instead of addressing the fundamental problem. If it's good enough for Microsoft, it's good enough for Apple. God, I hope I'm being too cynical. Please, Apple, prove me wrong.
That is the silliest thing I have heard, when has what MS did ever been good enough for Apple? Apple is sorta the antithesis of that.
As far as your thoughts on what Apple will do, they don't control StuffIt, they just added FTP support the the Finder, they are moving towards SFTP as their standard. I have a feeling they will not change StuffIt at all since its not theirs. They may change FTP in the Finder but considering that its pretty benign as far as being useful right now they have several areas to improve this included.
I have a feeling Apple will change the defaults for Safari and move on with life, or they will build in something akin to the AppleScript that was available the day after the announcement to check to see if a file is really an application.
