I would love to have TextMate in that menu, but I have no clue what 
Apple expects.

TextMate declares support for document types with the following 
criteria:

     CFBundleTypeExtensions = ( '*' );
     CFBundleTypeOSTypes    = ( '****' );
     LSItemContentTypes     = ( 'public.data' );

Quite sure that in the past, I got TextMate added when I added 
`public.data` but that no longer works.

I see e.g. Script Editor in the Open With menu, looking at their 
`Info.plist` I don’t see anything declared there that TextMate 
doesn’t also declare.

So if anybody knows how to get TextMate added by default, please let me 
know.
