Related, there's this answer to the question Where does Mac OS X Store File Associations. This is no different than creating your own do-nothing application and associating it with. It 'disables' file associations by creating a new association to a dummy application, not by removing the actual association. Turns out the app just uses a kludge/workaround. I tried the referenced application,, which the article says can disable any association. Turns out it's no good for removing an association that comes from the system.
