A rather clear document about those matters:

	https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Security/Conceptual/AppSandboxDesignGuide/

The plist file is just a technical detail.
It is used by Xcode for storing a list of wanted entitlements for an application (or a binary) to be built; when signing the application, those entitlements are stored within the application's binary (or the binary) and protected by the signature.
