Methods to access a file's type/creator codes that could easily be handled via the file system API (I think Michael Hall's FileSystemProvider might already do this).

From the eio package I'm using mostly FileManager methods:

- findFolder
- moveToTrash
- revealInFinder

From the eawt package:

- Application and its listeners
- FullScreenUtilities

However, Mac users typically like all their app to behave the same and take advantage of the newest OS features.
So more is usually better here...
