This afternoon, I was working on a completely different project, trying to make sense of the utis for .sparseimage and .sparsebundle files. I wondered if I could 'choose file ...' on these files. I tried ...

	choose file of type {"public.disk-image"}
	choose file of type {"public.archive"}
	choose file of type {"com.apple.disk-image-sparse"}

All of them allowed me to choose .sparseimage files, but none would allow me to choose a .sparsebundle file.
So, I quit. Defeated.


Later, I tried ...

	choose file of type {"dyn.ah62d4qmuhk2x465uqf3hg3pcsz1gk5df"}

and found that it DOES allow choosing only .sparsebundle files.

So, where did I get "dyn.ah62d4qmuhk2x465uqf3hg3pcsz1gk5df"? See my previous post!
