Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, you can open a Folder from a ClassicyFileSystem entry; you cannot, however, open a file.

Describe the solution you'd like
Create a File Creator Code, similar to the Classic MacOS Type/Creator codes. The code should designate which application to open. Applications should be able to accept open requests through an event handler that updates the app's data properties in the App Manager context. App Open requests should accept and open File System entries as well as URLs. Currently, the File System (as well as URLs) are read-only, so no saving is necessary.

Additional context
