I don't think any change is needed for this part of the cvsnt  
functionality.
Granted, there is less and less need to support resource forks on Mac  
OS X, but there's still some apps around that will actually put  
metadata in resource forks which people might want to preserve.
However, the mapping that users can set in cvsnt is not tied to  
creator codes, but rather on file type and/or extension, so this all  
should work fine even in Snow Leopard. Uniform Type Identifiers are  
pieces of metadata the system associates with files by looking at  
filename extensions and the file type code, so there's no need (and in  
fact no way) to directly specify UTIs from within cvsnt...
