It's only the default translation when it can't determine the file type,
although I agree it seems silly to have TEXT/UNIX be the default: I have
BINA/ttxt as the default translation, and explicitly set TEXT/whatever
only when I've tested that format and extracted it's type/creator from a
resource fork. [After being burnt by the TEXT/UNIX thing a few times... ]
