This is one of those niggling things.  Why can't we just
check and change it in Finder's info window?

Because the Finder's Get Info window is designed for typical Mac users, who have no idea what creators and types are or how to change them.

Then the Finder could use a private plugin interface for the info panel, and then when you installed the developer tools you would get an added panel in the info box for technical stuff like this.

Oh come on. Developers are geeks. I just loooove doing this kind of stuff with command line tools. Didn't you know that? ;-)

Now that sparks an interesting question. What would it take to create a plugin for xcode that would add this kind of functionality to the context menu in the G&F browser?
