If you're intending to trash the file, that's where I personally make the tradeoff... It may sound cruel and heartless, but if they're 99% of the time not recovering the file, and then 99.99% of the time not recovering the file to get comments or a creation date from it, then I will not be worried about the other 0.01% of the time.

Won't using NSWorkspace cause some information to be lost when performing any operation on HFS files? Testing this idea, I only notice that "Comments" from Finder's info window gets lost and that a copy operation will change file creation date.

Is anything else changed/lost?

What about NSWorkspace? I'm surprised nobody at least suggested this...
