Yes, it's the only way to actually associate the document type with
your app.  Your app bundle can export any type it wants; that doesn't
mean that it can open those types.

See the CFBundleDocumentTypes documentation for the keys you actually
need to provide (the ones that aren't marked as deprecated in
Leopard): http://developer.apple.com/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPRuntimeConfig/Articles/PListKeys.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20001431-101685
