Eh.  Looks like you're right.  I reconfigured the Info.plist with public.database as Item 0 and public.data as Item 1 and it worked this time around.  Originally, I added public.data, cleaned and rebuilt, and the files were still showing as gray in the open panel.  But, I cannot reproduce that again.  So, all is right with the world, I guess.
