When dragging files from iTunes, iTunes sends the following drag

I can't find any reference to the last two on the web, so I assume
they
are private flavors.
In a Carbon application I solved the problem by handling the
kDragPromisedFlavorFindFile flavor, which worked quite well. How do I
do this in a Cocoa app though? I can't find any NS*PboardType that
seems to relate to it.
Accepting the file promise is not what I want; I don't want to
create a
new file, but reference the existing file in the iTunes library.
Any ideas?
I think you want to have a look at Tech Note 1085 <http://
developer.apple.com/technotes/tn/tn1085.html>. It looks like iTunes
is mimics the behavior of Find File described in there. Which kinda-
sorta makes sense. Find File and that tech note established and then
documented a mechanism by which query results can be dragged, and
iTunes' file manipulation does kind of fall under the umbrella of
(updateable) queries rather than being a first class file system in
its own right.
