When files are selected for uploading using SuperContainer Companion plugin, it quietly takes any "file" that is a package/bundle in Mac OS X (essentially, directories that are treated as single files) and zips them.

The problem is that when you use the function SCDownload in the plugin to allow the user to export/save a local copy of the file, it does not transparently decompress the ZIP file. Instead, they are presented with a file that is different than what was uploaded.

I'm planning on a work-around where we store the real file extension upon upload. Then, when they click our scripted Export button, we will present them with a "Save" dialog that has the name and real file extension of the file. Then, we will export a temporary file to a temporary location, then unzip it from the temporary location to the location the user chose (using ScriptMaster).

It's disappointing to have to do this kind of work-around. Am I missing something? Is there some setting in SuperContainer Companion that tells it to transparently store and export packages as the real package, instead of silently zipping, but then not distinguishing between files zipped ahead of time by the user, and files that were not originally zipped?
