Actually, according to an Apple engineer, "public.data" should accept  
generic documents (i.e. should be equivalent to a file type of "*").  
So that's definitely a bug. Unfortunately that is not true on Tiger,  
I added that to my bug report. And that was (some time ago) also  
miserable to track down. Perhaps I'll file a bug report on the  
documentation.

Anyway, it's very bad for backwards/forwards compatibility.
