Files without an extension

Does anyone know how OS-X and/or the Finder treats files without an extension?

If I have a plain text file without an extension, then changing the program that opens txt files will make it change for plain text files without an extension.

But if I have an RTF file without an extension, it doesn't open with the default TXT application, nor with the default RTF application, but instead always seems to open in TextEdit.
