Open file with... option

In the finder there is an option that selects what application to open a file with. I don't really understand where that is from. Is it even a file attribute that can be set, or is it just the Finder using an "openApplication: withFile:" type method?

I'll keep looking though, I just recently discovered that OS X applications don't use file types and creator codes, so an option like this would be the best, I think, for OS X.
