Your code is correct. The problem is that Apple does not yet support the translation of NSFileContentsPboardType to the Carbon equivalent promiseHFSFlavor in inter-Carbon-Cocoa drag and drop. So as of now, it's impossible to create new files in the Finder from Cocoa drags.

P.S. They might be more inclined to fix this if it should happen to show up in a lot of bug reports somehow. *cough*bugreport.apple.com*cough* :-)
