[TextMate] Non-supported files

Whilst preventing TextMate from opening non-supported files is welcome 
(change in b4):

> TextMate will only open files from the project drawer if their

> (hidden files like .htaccess are considered to have no extension).

This now prevents me from running commands on the file selected in the 
project drawer, as $TM_FILEPATH is the frontmost _open_ file. (I have a 
'Test Movie in Flash' command as part of my ActionScript bundle, now 
broken, to be run on .fla files in my project). Any chance you could 
add another variable, e.g. $TM_SELECTEDFILE or something, so we can 
access these?

Also, why not allow these non-supported files to be opened by the 
Finder when double-clicking them? And having a Open with Finder command 
as well as a Reveal in Finder command?
