From what I've read/heard, this is correct. The fact that it isn't more common is because relatively few document types are packages. I don't think it's in the HIG, because it's a NeXTStep thing rather than a Mac OS thing.

Just idle curiosity, does anyone recall why that second d is there?

I've always assumed that it stands for "directory", it being a file package. The 'd' in rtfd would have the same meaning.
